Many of the providers use SIP, so even if they don't explicitly tell you
the SIP settings to us, it is possible to hookup something else. I've
heard that Packet8 gets annoyed when people use self-supplied devices, but
it would be possible to hack the code to emulate the device identifier.
I've seen an Vonage example posted.
I've had great luck with VoicePulse's Connect service. They just opened up a bunch of new rate centers, including Los Angeles/Orange County. $7.99/mo per phone number, 2.9 cents a minute for long distance outbound, no minimums or contract.
3. Finally, do any of the providers deliver more than one call via SIP? In
otherwords, if I'm already on a call and another comes in will they attempt
to deliver it?
Good question. I wonder how many of the providers even have the ability
to restrict you to one call! I hope the unlimited providers do, because
otherwise people using Asterisk as a SIP UA are going to have a field day.
VoicePulse Connect does. I had four people in a MeetMe conference last night, all dialing in via a VPConnect-supplied number.
