For example, here in Atlanta, my friend has a Google Voice number out of 404-939. If you take a look at the pooling and/or NANPA assignment information for that block, you'll find it's pooled and held by bandwidth.com's new CLEC: http://www.localcallingguide.com/lca_prefix.php?npa=404&nxx=939&x=&ocn=&region=&lata=&switch=&pastdays=0&nextdays=0 http://www.localcallingguide.com/lca_prefix.php?npa=404&... You can do an NPAC dip on it and find that it's not ported, so it really is being originated by bandwidth.com's facilities. There's nothing "virtual" about any of this.
