Does it really need POTS? Does anybody _not_ have a copy of something
like ekiga? There are even free SIP clients for Windows available.

Even if we really want to allow incoming POTS, it's not hard to get that
-- at least in the UK there are many providers who offer that for free
in the hope that you'll then start using it for _outgoing_ calls. I
think they also get paid a small amount for terminating the POTS calls
too.

No chance of me hosting the call on my own Asterisk box though -- my DSL
sucks too much :)
