The rhetorical question above was: "… how serious is Yahoo about VoiP?"

The answer is: "Not very." Since they acquired DialPad the quality of service and the abilty to connect PC2Phone on Intl. calls has deteriorated significantly. Sometimes I have to dial 10 to 20 times to reach Brazil.

They were serious about BUYING a VoiP Company, not running one.
