rdwud,
Although I appreciate your thoughts and facts I do want to throw in my two cents on your VoIP comments.
First of all Skype is P2P VoIP. That is peer-to-peer and requires that your caller also have the Skype software.
That being said, Skype, which was created by two of the same guys that created KaZaa (one of the most successful P2P packages to proliferate the spyware/adware epidemic) is free unless you want to call a landline etc. But the also want to hook you in.
Nothing is free. You will get adware, spyware, add-ons etc. etc from any of these guys. The problem here is that Vonage, for the most part, has a lock right now on the market. Why not take it else where and make profits for five years.
My understanding of Globetels VoIP is in the switches and routers which don't have to wait for the packets to organize in order to give much better, cleaner, realtime voice.
I say it's a good decision.
