It does sound crazy. Are you new to Asterisk and why do you need networking advice when you said, "The current team includes members with over 30+ years in the telecom industry and pioneers in the rollout of mainstream broadband VoIP networks. Maybe you were referring to business networking rather than computer networking. Do you have a business plan and startup money? When you say "partner", do you mean owning part of the company and working for it, or do you mean partner in the sense of partnering with vendors. I have setup a prepaid calling card for DoS (Department of State) to help people get visas to enter the US. They had to buy the card to call into the call center in order to make an appointment with the Embassy. The card gave them nine minutes of talk time, unlimited calls until the time was out, and the call was not to drop if it went over nine minutes, it could continue until hangup and then the card was not usable anymore. What is your niche market, there are tons of calling cards, it is saturated. If I were to do a calling card, I would get the best rates to Mexico all of South America. I would try to get seven eleven to be a distributor since there is a high population of South Americans in this area.
