   I am amused by and to some extent empathetic with your maxim, but I 
would be curious if you could flesh out your precise reasons for the
belief that this is a "ghetto fabulous" approach.

   Do you know what Level3--which, by most accounts has a decidedly 
non-ghetto luster--uses for their media gateway farms, at least on their 
traditional pre-Sonus voice network?
