#2Package up voip.ms or anveo on the backend in a nice UI, and provide a reliable SIP app (e.g. sipdroid), and you basically have what you guys are going for. If you focus on polish you can probably charge a premium, as right now there's still a high tech factor involved in setting such a system up.

#3Business calls are one of those things that any engineer doesn't want to be involved in. Thus, there's no passion behind the projects that exist :-)

#4What is a "business" call? I didn't see a definition.
"Just make and receive business calls. As easily as email."
Umm.... Most people I know are horrible at email. If I email 4 people and ask a group question, 90% of the time one of them replies only to me with info for the group. Or the reverse, sends a reply intended for me to the whole group, sometimes with embarrassing results.
"easily as email" is not a good bar to set.

#5I found the writing nearly incomprehensible, and the admission of not knowing what PBX meant, and bragging that they didn't care, was not reassuring. Even if you agree with the concept that email addresses are easier to get right than phone numbers (and that obfuscation of identity is not important), that is all interface issue. You are still going to need PBX to get it to work in an office.

I was thinking throughout the whole thing that it was written by someone whose first language is definitely not English. Beyond that, it was poorly proof-read, poorly laid-out and not coherent.

yeah, if you are starting a business that targets enterprise, you need to get a native English speaker writing things for you.

#9I see a lot of evidence on the website of a company that doesn't understand how to communicate.
