Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Would any of you be interested in getting rid of your local and long distance company??
Here's the deal.
I am doing a project at work where we use Internet broadband access to make local and long distance calls. This is not like the free long distance you use with your computer (but there is a client for that). This is 100% better, and from early tests, the people I have called, cannot tell anything different from the regular phone system. You can plug your existing phone/fax machine into a box, and it will convert your existing phone equipment and convert your calls to work over this service. If you want, you could get a special phone with internet browing, but it is pricy. You only need one internet connection since the phone and PC plug into the same line. The neat feature is that if you plug the phone into any internet connection anywhere in the world, your local phone number follows you. This is a private network so no one would get your phone number unless you gave it to them (i. e... no solicitors) You have the ability to make and recieve phone calls just like your regular phone. You could make a call anywhere in the word to another person on the network for free by dialing a 4 digit extension
For long distance calls off the network, you could use a phone card from Sams or use the service we provide for about the same cost.
Almost forgot. . 911 works with this system, so that wont be an issue.
Y'all be interested in something like this if we made it available?? Price would be comparable to what the phone companys charge for local service, if not a little less.
