take a step back and look at what DGIV has accomplished in terms of going to places like moscow, st.petersbug, germany, indonesia, and now egypt, with MANY more to come, and being able to sign deals with major foreign telcos.
I am sure big telcos like At&T, worldcom, Mci, sprint,etc...would love to be able to make the kind of deals DGIV was able to do, yet these so-called big boys were not able to get those contracts!!!!
Jimmy Chin is a DEAL CLOSER and that is a HUGE asset for DGIV, IMO.

Thanks Rocketeer1...

So in answer to my questions...

1) These are the discounted rates and are valid for making any calculations, discounted of course by the revenue sharing agreement or partnership split...

2) The Egyptian company can specify the means by which the international calls get carried if they originate out of Egypt. And of course, DGIV offers services other than just standard voice connection and so can compete with any other telco's that offer services like callback. Just checking for understanding here... couldn't any telco that has an ISP in Egypt or has an arrangement with an ISP provider offer callback services too?

3) Can Egypt also specify the route by which it receives incoming calls, like from the US?

BTW, this appears to be an extremely good deal for the Egyptian telecom too. They are going to be able to leverage their infrastructure by using IP Telephony and they are going to be able to reduce their international long distance costs much, much more than what they are passing on to the consumer. That would mean that they would have a negotiating margin to give up to DGIV that is VERY LARGE and still come out significantly ahead on the deal.

That also looks really good to me!

Lazarus, liking the sounds of this deal more and more...
