[Marcus Austin]

It doesn't really matter to CallNet that the CallNet name isn't big to end 

users, as that's not how they're setup. CallNET are primarily a backbone 

and ISP services company. CallNet have made quite a lot of money from 

providing free ISP services to other people, a service for which they take 

a not too insubstantial cut, and their parent company makes most of it's 

cash from providing backbone bandwidth in the US.
