Gary, I agree. I have been trying to locate an article today that I read last week that specifically attacked this mass conversion to a non-PBX world. In the article were a number of very large enterprise users that swore that it would be at least 3-4 years before totally migrating in that direction. Perhaps dumping the PBX solution makes sense to new roll-outs but there is a large amount of legacy equipmentout there. There is also a strong sense of confidence in the technology and this suite of products being delivered by LU, Nortel, etc that "slowly" migrates the customers in this direction. This actually works in favor of LU since it keeps them in their present customers, earns them $ along the way and gives them time to produce the next gen of 100% IP products. IMO. Brian
