STK1, those are impressive numbers, at least in terms of potential.

Even at only 10% of full usage they are impressive. 10% would be about
20,000 simutaneous calls at let's say about 2 cents a minute to FNet
but I imagine it depends. Lots more on international and about that
or a little less on domestic calls.

So, 20,000 calls x .02 cents = $400/minute = $24,000/hour x 10 hours
per day (lets be conservative) = $240,000 day x 5 days = ~$1.25 million
a week x 4 weeks = $5 million/month x 3 = $15 million/quarter.

Since we only need one $2.5 million quarter to IPO FNet, it would only
require about a 2% system usage to hit those numbers. Somehow I doubt
they are going to all this trouble for a 2% system usage :-)
