If anyone has feedback as to a GOOD voip provider experience (one that gave FREE DID) Please share.

I've had a DID from Vitelity.net for many years. $1.50 a month for the DID and 1.4 cents per minute (rates may have changed slightly). You have to burn about 3,000 minutes a month before you exceed the monthly standing charges for a landline. I kick $20 into my prepaid account a couple of times a year and I'm set. -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwards at sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000
