Comment Re:Per-minute charge? (Score 1) 222
I guess the whole point of this sytem is being missed.
Consider these....
a) Not all countries charge for incoming calls.
b) This system gives the cheapest way of POTS to POTS communication by using a VOIP bridge in between, thus taking out the most expensive piece.
c) Cost of one Call now is
(c2c cost one)+skype cost+(c2c cost two)
c2c cost one, technically is free if planned properly
skype cost, technicaly is also free
c2c cost, technically can be free if planned properly
There are quite a few limitations of this system, but is definitely a good start.
d) Voice quality and Lag will definitely be a challenge
e) There are legal challenges, in a few countries it is *illegal* to connect PSTN to IP network.

Are you sure a mile is only 1.6 km?
