Hi Steve, Using dynamically generated call files (eg real phones) cost money and apart from moving the cost from the customer to the vendor (you may as well just provide a 1800 service) there's no real advantage using that, and if you are using Asterisk why would you need Zifftalk? You can do this natively in Asterisk already.
The Corraleta SDK can do dynamically generated call files (you can check it out by clicking the call us button below) however being able to deliver the call using a headset via IP allows for far more creative applications, check out www.Mexuar.com/Demo/Demo5 as an example or http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=mexuar Cheers, Dean Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1-212-203-4357 Ph <http://click.mexuar.com/webuser/click/7/userurl/Cognation> <http://click.mexuar.com/webuser/nojs/7/userurl/Cognation> -------------------------------------------------------------------- www.Mexuar.com <http://www.mexuar.com/> Want to voice enable your website?
