Any other Portico subs out there, please correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that the "double minute" scenario is when you're on-line with Portico and place an OUTGOING call. Rationale being that you are occupying 2 lines - 1 for Portico, 1 for the outgoing call.
Incoming calls count straight up as minutes. No double line action, no double minutes of usage.
So uptick, if I am right, then you have to reduce your monthly estimate for your Portico fee.
Also, regarding how carriers want to use Portico - Maybe I'm oversimplifying things, but is it outrageous to think with several major carrier CEO's on the GMGC board of directors, their input was solicited as to what would be most desireable way for them to utilize Portico? Uptick, I'm sure you're a very smart guy and all, but I'm gonna take Denny Striegel's 2 cents on the value of Portico to a carrier and best partnership model for service over yours any day.
