One caveat: if the power goes out those won't work unless you have power backup like for a computer. They have to be plugged in to operate. That may be true for others as well. Good ole Ma Bell's worked no matter what!
I'm pretty sure we'll get OOMA as well. If power goes at least you have the cell.
If you have GMAIL you can make outgoing calls for free in the US. but after 2012 it might not be available.

If you still want a "real" land line and desire to save $, you can also get a minimum plan and rely on Google voice for free long distance.

There are lots of options.
