I did consider that.  It might be a viable option.  I'm dealing with people 
that are very uncomfortable with trying new things, and are likely to be

ulaw and g729 in a heartbeat, but maybe others won't.  I suppose I could 
provision the primary phones with ulaw and compress everybody else.

Have you put people on g729 in large numbers (office people?), and have they 
noticed?
