Anveo seems to me to have all the features and their graphical call-flow programming allows a lot of customization. Pay for use for outgoing. Incoming is unlimited for $2 (personal) or $4 (business) per month or pay for use (I don't know but might have a few minutes included as part of the basic (free) or enhanced ($/month) features). Add $0.80/month for E911 (required for outgoing calls if US/Canada resident).
Anveo rates are not intuitive. Where do you get the unlimited incoming for $2 from?
You would need the Anveo Free subscription package
https://www.anveo.com/consumer/service.asp
Then you need an Anveo Free "Personal" unlimited number which if you follow the chart to the bottom by United States you see column two with $2.00.

I'm currently on that plan with 2 OBI's, one for me and one for my mom. Once I get a full month of use I'll get a better sense of the costs. It is complicated to find the actual numbers ahead of time, but from my checking I think I'll end up about the same as say at Callcentric with their prepay plans.

Doesn't work like that.
After using all the minutes allowed for your subscription, Localphone charges their normal rate (e.g. US48 at 0.5cents/minute). I don't know any way to buy multiple subscriptions.
WOW!! They just lost my business.

Thanks. I use Anveo for 911, but now I've also got 911 with a Callcentric DID that I got to get Caller ID with name since GV didn't have it. Anveo or Callcentric are my frontrunners right now for switching from GV. But, I'll wait and see what Obhai is waiting to unvail in their blog. Thanks again.

Check www.pingshow.net. They can offer $40 per year with unlimited call in US & CANADA for GV numbers. Email to support@pingshow.net for more information.
In anticipation of seeing obihai announcing perhaps their own new voip service or announcements of 3rd party official obihai partners, I found this post interesting for the following similarities between PingShow Inc and obihai. These two companies are less than 9 miles from each other. I wonder if there is any affiliation between them.
Obihai Technology, Inc.
2105 S. Bascom Avenue
Campbell, CA 95008
pingshow.net (Airetalk)
1025 S. De Anza Blvd. San Jose, CA
Other similarities between them:
PingShow founded in 2010 with headquarters in Cupertino, California ( http://www.pingshow.net/aboutus.htm )
The first blog post I read about obihai: Obihai Technology, a tiny Cupertino start-up, this month brought to market its first product, the OBi110 (20 Oct 2010)
OBi110 product announcement 20 Oct 2010 ( http://obihai.com/press )

Keep in mind those rates are for outbound. Inbound is free. I would personally contact support if I wanted a bigger bucket of outbound minutes. I'm sure they could accommodate you.
