Doing it as an applet (where basically, there is a SIP client within the
applet), turns out to be troublesome. The problem is that sip clients need
to bind to specific local ports, and this is generally not possible for an
applet. An applet can only connect to the server it came from. However, we
have proposed some recent sip extensions for handling nat, which, at the
same time, would allow a sip applet to be constructed. See:
