  So you want another company to manage the TDM -> SIP conversion but you still want to be in charge of the trunks.

  I think probably your best bet is to find a managed co-location provider -- you obtain the TDM trunks and they will manage the servers and SIP or whatnot. I am sure such a thing exsists but  you will have to search for someone that is very knowledgeable and pick them with care. 

  Besides that, I can recommend ISPhone -- www.isphone.net -- we have been using them for a while and never had a problem, always friendly to deal with and I can't really recall having an open service issue beyond 24hrs.

    I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I have a twist.

    I currently answer almost 60-80 800 numbers from Global Crossing (GBX)
    that arrive on 7  TDM T1's.

    I'm looking for some options to 'host' these 800's and have the call be 
    presented via SIP.
    I like the keep control of these numbers and not 'Port' them somewhere
    if possible.
    I'd be willing to relocate these T1's to the 'host' but what I was
    hoping for is to
    find a Carrier that could deliver these calls directly using a company 
    such as Qwest or GBX,
    thus removing the 'middle man'.

    And frankly, it's hard to trust many of the 800 voip Providers I find on
    the net.  Can anyone point me to a
    company that you'd trust that could accomplish my goals?
