Telephone Company Review
If your Telephone Company got a Report Card, how would you grade it? A is Excellent, C is Average, F for Fail!

SIP is a voice over IP protocol that shows up in many of the latest and greatest phones from the best phone equipment manufacturers. Many people think that VOIP phone calls are cheap and low quality but SIP trunks provide higher quality of service and sound great.
