Interesting, I've been with Teliax for over 2years now and the one thing
I have always been able to depend on is that my emails have always been
answered and my phone calls have also always been answered with almost 0
on-hold time.
They have been great for me and I would recommend them to anyone. No
doubt they have had growing pains in the past, about 2 months ago they
stopped accepting Canadian credit cards for a few weeks, so I had to use
paypal, but they were upfront about the issue and did fix it eventually.
Excellent company to do business with.

Hi,
I tested Teliax service for sometime. This service has good comments
on this forum. The quality is OK, but all phone calls and emails are
not answered. We are provider seeking quality routes. If any guy from
Teliax out there, please contact
phong(dot)nguyen(at)vienthongso(dot)com.
Thanks

Adi,
Well its gonna be same, 1 E1 with 30 lines shall be able to populate a
volume of roughly close to 1.5M - 2.0M minutes/month, so if you are
ready to pay all that amount upfront, thats all the more better :) we
can provide you with a fixed costs with a upper ceiling of 2M
mins/month, let me know if thats fine, we can then provide you with a
FIXED Cost per month in prepaid mode. Contact me off the list.
Thanks & Regards,

Although I wouldn't complain about a free G.729 codec, I have to be
honest in saying that $10.00 isn't that great of an expense considering
the better call quality you get.
It's a question of scale. If I've got a Pentium that can handle 400
unencoded legs max, by the time I get through with multiparty
conferences, streaming and maybe recording unencoded, I might have only
50-75 simul calls, which is about $650 in codec licenses on a $650 PC.
That's cheap in terms of value, but expensive in terms of cost.
Especially if I want to run thousands of simul calls, which doubles my
5-figure cost to 6-figures. While I'd rather spend the money on
operations staff and developers who can add features and reliability.

I just caught this but oh well. GSM as used in asterisk has patent
claims
by philips. It expires this June or July I forget, Philips seems to have
stopped trying to enforce their patent claims on the very library asterisk
uses, but right now technically using it without a license could get you
sued (only part of the gsm codec is claimed to be patented).
The newer GSM 6.10 which afaik asterisk does not support although there
might be 3rd party people doing it has additional patents on the AMR parts
of it. Those dont expire so quickly.
