One thing Skype has going for them, they have clients for Linux and Windows. I like Firefly, but no Linux interface. Until I found x-lite for linux I couldn't find a single Linux client that came remotly to Just Working. I downloaded Skype for Linux and it worked out of the box, first time, no hassles. How can you compete with that. Asterisk is a PBX, Skype is not, but Skype solves a problem simply and straight forwardly that Asterisk doesn't. -- Martijn van Oosterhout Ecomtel Pty Ltd _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
