I have not added antoher post comparing the services Vonage, Broadvoice, Voicepulse.

I will then need to know what hardware does the conversion stated above better, plus perhaps a foward and IP call to a cell phone using a local exchange.

Thanks.
Yes...that's what a SIP adapter does...which is what you buy/rent from a VoIP provider. You need a VoIP provider to make this work. SIP boxes are not standalone devices.

You're coming at this backwards. Find a service provider that fits your needs (price, feature set, etc.) and they will provide you with the box appropriate to their service.
