Dunno if this counts as thread hijacking, but i've completed my number
port from Vonage to http://vitelity.com.

I'm running trixbox at home, and have my house phones plugged into an
unlocked linksys pap2, call quality is great, and in this robocalling
election season i'm really enjoying blacklisting callers. :)  The
day/night setting is also handy with a baby in the house.  Night time
calls get sent to our cellphones.

The actual number port took about three weeks, but while i was waiting
i logged into the vonage control panel and forwarded my phone calls to
the vitelity phone number i already had.

I've been very happy with trixbox, the pap2 and vitelity.  If you have
a little bit of time to dork around with it i highly recommend this
setup. :)
