Bill, I didn't get any details here. But normal VoIP headers are pretty big...like 40% of the payload. This is more to the bandwidth requirement issues. But yes, Mr. Bruce suggested that they had a way to give some IP packets higher priority than others. But my understanding is that all intermediate routing and switching nodes on the internet would also need to understand that priority mechanism for this to function in a meaningful way. I did not have an opportunity to discuss the details of this with Mr. Bruce. JXM
