G'day all - Ken & Mike, as all of you know, I am not a technie, but this is a very much "Much Ado About Nothing." VoIP, IP [internet protocol,] analog, digital, packet etc. The guy from Gilder seems to confuse the comment "the early adopter" with "the only implementer." I mean, PR tends to be hyperbole anyway, but FWIW, I don't see a case for Ottawa Citizens, who is really the culprit of the way the article was written, except maybe a political payback. Mr Roth did offhandedly threaten to leave Canada.

best, Bosco

Existing IP telephony deployments are either enterprise or three stage dial systems.

What Nortel has here is a single stage dialling network integrated into SS7 - i.e. a transparent segment of the existing PSTN network. Yes, Virginia, there is a difference.
