2 reasons for not using IAX: A. CDR as part of the media B. Not good hardphone / softphone
Problem A (CDR as part of the media) I am not worried about too much, as long as the data is there some parsing will allow me to extract it and then do what i want to do with it. Problem B (Not good hardphone / softphone) what would be the best hardphone/softphone to make it work ? t On Mon, 21 Mar 2005 13:15:22 -0500, Andrew Kohlsmith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On March 21, 2005 01:07 pm, Kevin P.
