Not saying they are smart, but big companies are doing it.
Just a note here, but I believe most USB headsets do *not* use the soundcard in your PC, but are their own sound devices. I know the Plantronics headset that I used with my Cisco SoftPhone (before I got my Logitech bluetooth headset - which rox btw) is an independent sound device that is far superior to the fidelity I can achieve using the default soundcard in this Thinkpad T40p. Also, our entire company (Cisco) is fully VoIP, both hardware and software IP phones, as well as a few analog phones hanging off of FXS to VoIP gateways. Internationally. --Reggie -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
