Why upgrade when my Obi100 is useless now?

Get an account at PBXes.org.
For an extra $20 I would wait for the OBi200 to go on sale again.

OBi200 currently on sale for $40 at Newegg using promo code EMCEPRS45.

Seems PBXes had a great plan like some other companies (ahem) & purged inactive accounts in enough time to beat the GV starting deadline, thereby forcing prior users to pay them.
I had 2 formerly well used accounts there from back when free acually meant 100% free.
Both went poof without any warning.
No way will I pay them to get another 'free' account.
It'd be great if they had a promo which waived the setup fee, but it seems very doubtful that is likely to come around.

PBXes had a strict policy of only 1 free account per person. I don't know how they determined how many accounts a person has, maybe by IP address. Anyway, having 2 free accounts is probably why they went poof. PBXes now allows multiple "Free" $15 accounts.

Hi Azrobert.
My 1st/older account was closed by me.
At a later date I opened a replacement account.
When GV stuff went goofy I checked the newer one - gone, so I checked the older as well.
I'm not big on trusting companies that tweak around with the word 'free';
In my lexicon it means 100% free - not partially free, and:
What's to say they don't change things again to suit themselves, anytime at all.
If I'm going to pay for services, I'd rather pay someone who is definitely honest, like Sam.
