RE: [Asterisk-Users] USB conference phone

I bought one of these. It's a great device. So good that I gave it to my
boss to use with Skype. It's far better than the speakerphone in the
Alcatel phone on his desk. We've used it with Skype and Gizmo.

Once you plug it in, the computer sees it as a speaker, and mic. So if
you can get OSS or ALSA to use it, you can use it just as you'd use any
sound card in asterisk.

 I've got a couple of these, they're $40 and there's a $20 rebate going 
 on now. For that price it's pretty amazing. Plug and play, no drivers 
 required. Quality very good, it does echo cancellation and noise 
 reduction. I only wish it had a mute button.
 
 BTW: I don't have any affiliation with ioGear other than I like this

Yep I totally get it; It pisses me off as well that my free
Skype service has better clarity and quality of call than my paid for Polycom
Hardphone and Asterisk server.

I think its a function of Skype rather than the handphone.

Yes, I have that device, I wrote the review of it and have 
used it regularly ever since. I use it with IDEFISK softphone for the most part 
but have tested it with Skype, X-Lite, and SJPhone. I have had it since November 
and just love it.

Yes, I have that device, I wrote the
review of it and have used it regularly ever since. I use it with IDEFISK
softphone for the most part but have tested it with Skype, X-Lite, and SJPhone.
I have had it since November and just love it.

Kerry, do you actually own one? Have you used it for long?
What are you using it for?



(jim  personally I cant see the point of using your
phone when I have a very good quality headset and mic.).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] USB conference phone

2006-04-26 Thread John covici
Any way to use this on a Linux box so I could use this with asterisk?
I have a windows box on the same network, but how would I get asterisk
to see such a thing?

Thanks.

  I've got a couple of these, they're $40 and there's a $20 rebate going 
  on now. For that price it's pretty amazing. Plug and play, no drivers 
  required. Quality very good, it does echo cancellation and noise 
  reduction. I only wish it had a mute button.
  
  BTW: I don't have any affiliation with ioGear other than I like this 
  product.
