Hardly! The job of the "traditional telephone company" has always been to connect a pair of wires at one end to a different pair of wires at the other end. That isn't going away anytime soon. There are more pairs of wires, with more and faster-changing signals travelling along them, that still need marshalling -- perhaps in more complicated ways than just one-to-one. Whenever I am sending electrical impulses along wires and possibly via radio links, maybe even out into space and back, whether to someone in the same street or a different country, someone has to be making sure that those electrical impulses come out in the right place. That is still the domain of telecommunications companies; they are just doing it with rather more bandwidth than the human voice. The need for electrical impulses to be delivered to the correct destination still stands. What has changed is, there are more ways than ever to make use of this "electronic logistics" service, and markets are emerging and evolving. -- JM Note: Originating address only accepts e-mail from list!

Is this what the future looks like? Look forward to a lot of SPIT (SPAM over Internet Telephony). BTW how to you expect to get the data on your mobile device? That is a "traditional" telephone company its bussiness, providing network capabilities to endusers. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this the future of telephony?
What might be good to consider is that "traditional" telcos actually use VOIP tech on the back end a lot. SIP URIs seem to be a kewl and ubiquitous solution, but for the average joe, not so easy to setup and use. And for the record, I consider wireless carriers as traditional telcos as well as wireline carriers.

Speaking of this book, where can I get it? Obviously I can read the pdf, but I lack the facility to print it in any usable fashion. The labor and materials that I have spent on trying to print it thus far probably outweighs the cost of the silly thing. Is it only available online, or do you think Barnes and Noble, Borders, etc might have it?

Hello, Bob! At 01:32 PM 02/21/2006, you wrote: Speaking of this book, where can I get it? Obviously I can read the pdf, but I lack the facility to print it in any usable fashion.

Oh, I wouldn't print the whole thing; the price of the paper copy doesn't make it cost-effective to run one off... unless you happen to work at a place with a nice laser printer and a spiral-binding machine, I guess! Any reputable book seller should be able to order it by its ISBN (0596009623). I bought my paper copy from Amazon, and had it in a week. It *is* a real book -- the PDF that was released is (most of) exactly what went to the book printing company -- the markings in the corners are alignment marks, and the vertical and horizontal lines in the margins are the cut marks for binding. The table of contents and index are missing, probably because they're fairly useless in a file you can do full-text searches on, and also probably to make counterfeiters actually have to do some work. -- Alexander Burke, A+, CCNA Kingston, Ontario, Canada ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
