Yet again, another way to get more traffic traversing the exchange. I remember Sunday's session on VoIP, and as Badru puts it, as long as money is not exchanging hands, ILEC's networks aren't being used to provide additional service over the VoIP network, it's not against the law. I remember INOC-DBA/PCH was trying to start the same thing, albeit their solution was based on AS numbers and 7960 Cisco IP Phones. Software phones that can interact with Asterisk are available, supporting SIP, H.323, MGCP, e.t.c., with variable and flexible voice codecs. If each ISP had some VoIP-based hotline available in their NOC, using the exchange as a medium, that would be a place to start.
