It's my jackleg appraisal -- I'm not an attorney much less an FCC specialist attorney -- that that subjects your service to regulations and restrictions that don't pertain to people who do it the other way; you are simply a VoN carrier, competing with all the other VoN carriers like Vonage; if you *do* give your own traffic priority, then you're violating... title II? Some net neutrality provision that they don't cause they're not *moving the calls* "over the Internet". Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
