[asterisk-users] using residential voip for business?

They do this because business customers tend to use more minutes than 
residential customers, and an unlimited plan is always an ESTIMATION of 
usage.  It costs them for every minute you use, so they try to sell 
residential customers a block of time, and call it unlimited, which it really 
isn't (read the fine print).  I have found that unlimited plans VERY rarely 
cost less than paying per minute in any situation.  Do the math.
