Oh, I see. So the one OCN for every LATA obligation doesn't exist? -- Alex

The advantage to VoIP is cost, assuming you don't need to order dial tone to anyone through the LEC. $375 per state CLEC OCN adds up, versus one nationwide IPES OCN, and you're already paying $950 per LATA for POI CLLI either way.

I guess the difference is now you can do this without actually obtaining CLEC status as such?
The other steps are a pain (mainly ICA), but not having to petition the state PUC certainly cuts some of the work out. I guess.
