Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Vonage can't give their packets a high priority over a service providers network; only the service provider can do that. If anything, the cards are stacked against Vonage and its peers: they can only realistically compete on price and customer service. An MSO or RBOC can easily provide superior service over their own network without having to block anyone. Now if its MSO/RBOC vs. Vonage, et. al on price, who do you think will (eventually) win? aaron.glenn
