[asterisk-biz] Unlimited DID

[Jai Rangi]

Well !  based on the real meaning of Unlimited in your dictionary, actually
there should be not any any such word called  Unlimited. Cause there is no
unlimited sun, not unlimited water in ocean, these is no unlimited air in
space. Everything humans know has been calculated.
To me if I can get something more than I can use in near future that is
unlimited for me. Of if I can stay on phone with looking at clock that is
unlimited.
BTW when I will sign contract with you I will put a limits of 50 channels
per DID ;) .

-Jai
