Maybe you are... :-) Seriously though, I think that making sure their SIP firmware works well with Asterisk is a reasonable baby-step for them, one which doesn't require too much additional development effort. They already sell phones that work with Cisco CallManager, and since CCM has gone SIP in 5.x, Polycom probably already has a lot of working code for SIP support. IMO IAX isn't a widely-deployed protocol except between Asterisk instances - someone can correct me if I'm wrong. I've only ever seen one hardphone that supports IAX (from GNet). - Julian -- -- Julian C.
