[cisco-voip] opting out of local trunks in lieu of low cost long distance

[Jason Aarons (US)]

Using VoIP (H323/SIP Trunks) at a half-penny per minute termination can
sometimes be cheaper than a local trunk. Depends on location. For
example in rural Kansas a voice PRI is still $900 a month, that a lot of
half-pennys.

I know there are regulations involved with doing toll-bypass over IP but

this is the first time I've heard of someone wanting to purposefully 
incur tolls by way of VoIP...
