Fax-to-email service

I just signed up for a free trial of a fax-to-email service. I found some useful info on David Berger's Free Internet Faxing Guide which led me to CallWave. When you sign up, you get a local fax number which lets you receive faxes as PDFs by email. The first 30 days are a free trial; after that, unless you cancel, it's $7.95 a month.
I'm thinking about ditching my BellSouth phone service for either Vonage or Time Warner's digital phone service, but before I can do that, I need a solution for receiving faxes. I don't need to receive faxes very often, but when I do, it's important, and so it needs to work! But I don't need to pay BellSouth something like $20/month for that extra "ringmaster" service. I don't even know what I'm paying BellSouth for it, actually, because it comes with a package deal. I'm just thinking that with $8/month for receiving faxes and maybe $30 or $40 a month for digital phone service, that's $38-$48 a month, and I'm currently paying $88/month.
We'll see how the fax service is, and I have to start talking to Vonage and Time Warner. I wouldn't mind saving $50 every month.

How did it work out for you? Is fax-to-email just as good as the real thing? I've been considering this service myself.
