<div>Never heard of them but the concept seems pretty good. I didnt look at the pricing but I asume that they will a chunk of thier money on the calling side (i.e. calling both parties and connecting them etc.). Another chunk on software and set up. I think such a solution is workable for asterisk however you would have to have good programing skills, lots of time. It seems the best way to go about it would be to run asterisk real time along with an external application that works with asterisk that keeps track of all users, thier status etc. So in the long run it is possible but it may take a little time. Also you would have to think of what you can offer that this company already dosent. (you can include this as an option when you build some one an asterisk system but is it worth all the time an effort etc. ?)</div> <div><BR><BR><B><I>Dean Collins <Dean@collins.net.pr></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px;
