[Asterisk-Users] Reverse phone lookup interface with asterisk

[Jay Milk]

Yep -- 'xept that side simply refers you to 411.com, phonenumber.com and
whitepages.com, which are all three different flavors of the same site
-- data returned is identical.  In comparison, this data seems more
complete and up-to-date than anywho.com or switchboard (which in turn
seem identical as well).  Can it be that there really only are two
different sources of phonebook data online?
