We just tried to go entirely with softphones in our office gave up after a month or so of trying. I tried probably 10 different softphones running on 3.0Ghz WinXP machines and none of them were workable. I tried both SIP and IAX2 softphones using headsets plugged into the audio ports, USB headsets, and USB phone interface boxes (www.phoneconnector.com).
While it wasn't hard to get them to work and the concept would have been
perfect in our environment, the quality was _terrible_! We had many issues

I found that for the most part, crappy sounds cards caused the bulk of problems with soft phones.
I noticed that on, for example, intel D865PERLL motherboards with an onboard realtek AC97 sound
device, There was heaps of echo for the remote end (using a softphone or a hardphone).
I also found that a stock standard Creative PCI 128 sound card gave great results.
Given PCI128s arn't available anymore, I'm sure you could find an alternative, like perhaps
even going as far as a SB Live Value.. if you buy these in bulk, im sure you can get em cheap
as chips.
I've only ever used X-lite as a soft phone and found it to be really very good.
