<div>We do not plan on taking anything, CF. You and I have the right to be a member of this list. It is a business list re: Asterisk. We are in that business. Muneeb shared this proposal for solving a huge problem for many: porting DID easily to DIDX, and routing the DID over SIP, IAX2 and/or H323 using DIDX. Many have taken advantage and are happy with it.

<div>$5.00 to port the DID, $3.90 setup fee, $3.90 monthly fee for most of the USA. USD applies. Thanks for the suggested correction.</div>

<div>The offer for 5000 included minutes with 10 channels or unlimited mins with 2 channels, is correct, sir. We have ported several 100 already. Not a brag, just a fact. Since we are in a position to to do this to make life easier for many in the IP communications industry, we are doing it.
