Easy access to talent..... and lets face it where else are you going to start up? NY..... I hate it and I 'have' to live here. BTW another neat start up I saw at CTIA last week is www.savaje.com <http://www.savaje.com/> Java based mobile OS being sold to MVNO on other companies hardware, highly customisable and OTA updates, very neat - one to watch. Based in MA....does that make you happier :-) Cheers, Dean ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Douglas Garstang Sent: Monday, 17 April 2006 3:40 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Orative Jeez.

Never heard of them but the concept seems pretty good. I didnt look at the pricing but I asume that they will a chunk of thier money on the calling side (i.e. calling both parties and connecting them etc.). Another chunk on software and set up. I think such a solution is workable for asterisk however you would have to have good programing skills, lots of time. It seems the best way to go about it would be to run asterisk real time along with an external application that works with asterisk that keeps track of all users, thier status etc. So in the long run it is possible but it may take a little time. Also you would have to think of what you can offer that this company already dosent. (you can include this as an option when you build some one an asterisk system but is it worth all the time an effort etc. ?)
