JWT, I don't know about ETEL or 3Com because I didn't visit their booth's, but I did visit NPSK and they did not have their gateway setup for internet calls. That was the case at Lucent, EFusion, Magnavox, InterTel and some others that also have DVG's. It's like they didn't come to the show with the intention of making a major push on that product and demonstrate how well it worked in actual internet calls. My guess is their products aren't much better than VocalTech's, but at least they have enough smarts not to demonstrate something that is poor quality. Anyway, a company like Lucent and Magnavox have many other products to showcase. Franklin was there doing their stuff and all I can say is, hearing is believing. Once the companies that have evaluation units have a chance to put them to work and see what they can do, the orders will come. Like Neil said at the SHM tour, he has the best calling card in the world, a toll quality DVG that he can talk on in order to make his sales pitch. That's something that will get you into just about any CEO's office. We just need to relax and let Frank and company do their stuff.
