SIP servers - Sonus, Clarent (I think), Nortel, Indigo, guys like that. SIP phones used by providers - practically none. Dont' get me wrong - there are SIP phones out there. But phones are not really the point of SIP. SIP is a generalized control plane that extends far and beyond phones. Right now, SIP is mostly being exploited by mobile carriers for back-end interoperability. SIP is also being exploited to facilitate rich instant messaging (consider RFC 3428).
