The Base of my Ideas is a Simple access device which makes a PC to accept Regular Telephone, I found this piece of Equipment when i was doing research on VOIP
Let's say I Call it as Access Device. The Access device costs about Rs.500 may come up to Rs.800 with import charges.
This Access device is plugged into regular
computer any kind of PC running Win95/98/2000 ,
The other end you will connect your regular
telephone making it as simple international phone
You can use cordless too just connect internet to
the PC and take cordless or normal phone and start
making calls , as simple as that. here is the
diagram
Keeping legal/Illegal things beside , here is the solution that you need to call Worldwide phones from india, The provider i Saw is called Innomedia, at a cos of 5cents/min ( Rs-2.50/min) at a flexibility to make a call using phone, as shown in diagram. Here is what you need to do, tell your people who are abroad to buy and send this hardware called " VOIP BLASTER" made by creative sells @ $19.99 per piece. comes with free 100 Minites calling time to USA. and you can recharge after that with credit card. get this hardware and install it in your computer / laptop in india and plug in a Phone and make calls as if you are in US dialing direct USA number from cordless or normal phone.
For businesses, also you can just run phone wires from this component to a closed phone booth and run it as regular ISD phone booth, good for Browsing centers because they already have computers, connect as many devices as you can and run at least 4 telephone lines with 64kbps Link. or with double telephone line modems.
Well the solution uses international gateways to call the
international phones, so it is still not pure legal for
business users.
I may start working with Indian service providers to make
this pure legal solution for businesses and office
use.
Right now anyone India can do this and call anyone.
Possible business/office applications I see are.
1. Cyber cafés now can have Pure telephone booths with
Pulse meter and accept customers to call US/UK/Singapore etc..
backend it uses a computer to route calls.
2. Home users who don't have PC at home can get
connected via Cyber café to their children.
3. I am working on a IP PBX which is very much cost
effective incorporating Voice mail, FREE Branch Office Calling
with a minor One time investment
For Small businesses and Corporate users. A total Write up on
this shall be available in a week.
*** I am trying to start an office in Hyderabad to support my
solutions and market the Ideas.
