Wow, thank you! Now I'm a little bit less confused, but..

>The US Telephone system is amazingly convoluted and impossible to understand.

...this is true, oh yes! Ok, better I'll tell you what I want to do:

- Getting 1.000.000 numbers in sum of every existing destination (maybe on demand for customers)
- Providing VoIP services in the USA (worldwide, but we should start on one continent)

Next thing is: What could be better than your traditional landlines if you got DSL? I realized that VoIP calls can be of a much better quality compared to the traditional telephone. May $3.99 a month compare with traditional telcos? Some more features like redirection, mailbox and all the other neat things you can do with VoIP? Talking for 1 cent per minute in the whole USA and talk for free with your VoIP capable friends? Plugging in your VoIP phone in Hawaii and getting calls even when you are a thousand miles away from home?

Thank you al lot, this conversation is very important to me.
Oh, one more comment: I'm the one with visions not the one with money ;-).
