iPad Pro: The Missing Workflow
February 3, 2013
Edited by Jean-Louis Gassée
Monday Note
The iPad started simple, one window at a time, putting it in the
"media consumption" category as a result. Over time, such category
proved too narrow, the iPad did well in some content creation
activities. Can the new 128 GB iPad continue the trend and acquire
better workflow capabilities?

Free? Forget it. But low cost is certainly possible.
My suggestion would be to port the number to a VoIP carrier like
Callcentric, then forward it from there. If the new service provider
handles VoIP, you might be able to terminate it directly without
forwarding. For incoming calls they charge $20/mo times the number of
simultaneous calls it can handle. (If the fund drives are only once
or twice a year, you can drop down to one channel most of the time,
then provision as many as you need for fund drives.)
If the service bureau can't do VoIP, the outgoing forwards are a
little under 2c/min.
I haven't looked at other VoIP carriers, who might be cheaper,
but I know that Callcentric actually works.
