Blackarcher, that seperate managed network is the priority packets of the voice information taking precedence over the data portion. As far as I can tell Vonage is the exact same thing, except that they do not have any infrastructure at all and have to ASK the shaw's, Bell's and Telus' of the world to prioritize the information on their behalf. They don't have to. Vonage should step up to the plate and pay extra for the prioritized info, but instead they asked CRTC to regulate it.
I wouldn't be putting a penny of my investment money into VOIP providers without their own infrastructure backbone.
