I called and spoke to Lisa. Delightful woman.
Relocation is NECESSARY. Salary is approximately $40k.

But seriously, 40k probably gets you a decent set up in Iowa I guess.
End of the day, you're still in Iowa....
That ties in with my experience.My whole company telecommutes. We are a 60 person software company and we get more done this way than the old Brick and Mortar way. We have software designed for meetings, for our phone system, and our work order board.
It is a very Green way to work. My F-150 sits around all day wondering when it gets to go out. My insurance bill is lower as my truck is only used in "pleasure".
As someone who has hired telecommuters and been one myself (software industry), I can definitively say that telecommuting is a horrible thing to manage. Productivity falls off really fast if you can't get your "team" in the same room (literally, not via WebEx, PC Anywhere, etc.). Even if you have the most dedicated folks with great work ethic, you lose an awful lot of creativity and brainstorming power when working across the 'net.
