I have been using JunctionNetworks for a few months and they have
great service all the way around, but they are probably one of the
most expensive as well.  Since you get what you pay for in this case,
I am happy to pay the premium.  I have "unlimited" channels, so long
as I do not saturate an area or initiate calls faster than one per
second unless it is a small burst.

Bandwidth.com is also very good.

I have used Vitelity for testing and mainly use their DID failover for
a few toll free numbers that I have bought from them.  They seem OK as
far as service but I don't get the feeling that they are of the same
caliber as the above.  Vitelity wanted me to sign up as a reseller or
something to get the capability to use a large number of channels.

Gafachi was worse.

Thanks,
