They do this every couple of months, so no hurry.  Direct from Ooma it's 
$99 plus $10 shipping, and there's probably the same $10 shipping 
attached.  They gave us the premium service free for a year if we signed 
up for a year, and excused the other fees.  Maybe they're not as 
generous now.

Charter.  Internet only.  $50/month after haggling.  They aren't as 
willing to cut the price as they used to be.  I don't know hether that's 
because AT&T isn't viable competition (costs more for less speed) or 
because they can't afford to.

Yes.  The base station plugs into the router and the cordless satellites 
go wherever you want them.  Mainly the bathroom :-(

We bought a variety of cordless phone systems at yard sales.  Most of 
them worked, they just had unpleasant quirks.  We settled on a Panasonic 
set, but we recycled other Panasonics.

Those talk to the router, right?  Phone shouldn't matter.

I can't see any reason to change what we have either.
