I believe iTalkBB is the best company if you are Chinese or Korean. They have both Chinese and Korean support.
It appears English support is not very good according to other reviews, but since I never used English support I cannot comment on that.
iTalkBB was the cheapest company with reasonable voice quality. Music that plays when you are put on hold tends to break up, but has no problem hearing voice calls.
Their website layout is some what confusing and does not allow you to log-in by user name. You have to enter BB# which basically is your phone number with in iTalkBB system and also your account number. (Not your local phone number).
There is no features like call filtering, voice quality selection, call hunting. Voice mail is very hard to use. You have to dial 214-379-1195 to access their voice mail system. Not a simple number like most other companies. Also, the recording is in the system only for 24 hours.
This may not be a problem if you don't use phone to access voice mail, since they also mail recording to your E-mail.
Unlimited calls 27 countries (land line only for countries that charge more for mobile phone calls).
They have referral program and you will receive 100 points (which is equal to $1) per month and 500 points ($5) one time credit for each person you refer.
They also do special promotions time to time (at least on Korean plan). The last promotion I got was 3 months free for referring 2 people.
This makes their service very cheap if you refer enough friends.
Installation was straight forward as with most other voip companies.

So far the only problem I had was canceling one of the 2 accounts I ordered. The # they give to call to cancel is an automated voice... which has no option for cancelations, or customer support. I had to speak to a Tech support agent... who barely spoke any English at all (seeing as how this is a Chinese VoIP company...kind of expected) They transfered me to a mandarin only agent at first, and I had to call back in to get an English speaker again... If your one of the people always calling tech support, and dont know Mandarin, might want to stay away.
Voice quality has been good. I've been using it to call China and USA a lot, I heard a clicking a few times... and once when someone called me my voice echoed for the whole call (But they were in China on a cell phone...so I kind of suspect it was that).
I've had no missed calls, it comes with all the nice needed features (Not sure if it has virtual #'s though).
Overall... it's a really nice VoIP provider. One of the best I tried so far.

The service is not as refined as Vonage, but the call quality is very good. I never have service interruptions. With the unlimited plan you receive a toll free number with which people from Asia can call for free, and your calls to most countries in Asia are free.
