Interesting conversation... a partner and I are setting up _exactly_ 
this sort of business right now, but not in the areas the OP wanted.

I see a great deal of market for VOIP trunk service exactly as mentioned 
in this thread: multiple trunks (even some usage-based if you want to go 
over your "maximum"), a set of numbers (some ported via LNP, others via 
blocks of DID), and calls coming over those trunks just as if there was 
a PRI to the customer's premises.

On the backend we'll do the same thing the telcos do; oversubscribe our 
PRI capacity at some reasonable rate. We will be targeting small 
businesses, averaging 20 employees and smaller, so we can use a 
reasonable oversubscription rate. A company selling this service to 
larger companies would have to have a closer match between their number 
of "sold" VOIP trunks and their number of PRI channels available.
