Bob - sorry for the late reply Re: Software client

I can see a lot of advantages to having software client availability. Let's consider a corporation which expects to have an average "out of office" rate of 100 employees due to a two day a week telecommuting incentive and some that call in sick, need to wait for the cable repairman, car in shop etc.

In this case you could install 4ea BT-2410 or BT-2420 servers (yea, I know, 96 ports but 4 of the people are genuinely too sick to work) and instead of having to open everyone's cases to install an ISA client card you merely load the BT Software Client on everyone's machines that might participate. Although no cost (if any) has been announced it's likely to be less expensive than a full client card.

Ah yes, the patents. Some really nice ones so far, can't wait to see what I believe is about 10 more in progress of getting patent pending approval.
