I was just talking to another tech here who was part of a team that started
to review their offering (but didn't follow through). He says yes you need
VPN but only for signaling as RTP doesn't travel over it.  Colo wasn't a
requirement but even so shouldn't be a problem as we can obtain colo easily
in one of their POPs.  The only minimum that was mentioned was $500/month
and they were happy to wave that.

Unfortunately the only sales person he had contact for moved to a different
department *sigh*

There are some obvious benefits for being able to partner with someone like
verizon especially when they can do inbound termination for local DIDs in a
market we are trying to enter.
