At work we offer VOIP and can assign a Real world number (normal phone number) such as a Perth number, Melbourne or Sydney.
You can then for instance (if you have a Melbourne number) call another Melbourne number and pay a local call(whereas you'd be paying STD) and the same can be done the other way; they call your new number and it calls through VOIP but they only pay a local call.
You can even have 1 Perth number, 1 Melbourne number, 1 Sydney number, even though you live in Melbourne and anyone from one of those places only pays a local call if calling from one of those destinations and vise-versa. From memory local call cost is 10c ?
