Right and who said we need to do away with physical phones? We will also
be able to use physical phones to browser the web.

I definitely prefer a physical phone to a soft phone! Kind of a bit off
topic, have you guys seen this:
http://www.shoretel.com/about/newsroom/press_releases/New_ShoreTel_Dock_Transforms_iPad_and_iPhone_Into_Desk_Phone_.html
I was just telling my buddy how Cisco had such a great idea with the Cius
but missed out by trying to create their own tablet, and then I see an
advertisement for this. If Cisco had only provided the dock for and
already super competitive tablet/smartphone market, it would have been
brilliant! I'm surprised Shoretel seems to be the only company that sees
the opportunity here. Vendors can keep making money on hardware but
provide a unified client experience across all platforms (Jabber). It's
the best of both worlds!

No matter what, there will ALWAYS been a need for large scale Enterprise
voice systems. I am one of those people, and I am sure I am not alone, I
will always want a physical phone. I am also one of these engineers who
will always recommned a system that is directly under your own site's
controll. Clouds are great, but they have their place. I don't think
telecom will ever be a total cloud based solution.

As a former big Telco employee, they want three things:
Stability
Scalability
Profitability
At this time these applications are not there.

hi Laksh,
Thanks for your inputs here.This was a good discussion. It is
always good for us to all know about things that happen outside . Talking
about Telco OTTs we can already see few of the Telcos have come out with
Webrtc solutions for enterprise and service providers . Check this video
out too depicting their solution...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz-BQZMp3sk
Most of these applications written on software are supposed to open
source and left for the users to customize . No real networking staff
expertise required just download the SDK/API and customize and no more
complex network topologies in future. Also no licensing fee too . Hence a
real killer of techology in the future most likely we will see a wide
spread of this starting 2014 if all predictions are to be believed.
Hope someone from any of the TELCOs on this alias can add a few comments
as well.
Thanks once again for your inputs everyone.

Hi Drake,
I totally understand your concern, I'd be worried too. Having said that,
we should always update ourselves with the latest technology. However, in
future I believe Asterisk might be able to give tough run to Cisco UC. Not
sure though, I hear stories that it is unstable and featureless compared to
CUCM. I hope if someone aware of Asterisk would help us out here.
Regard,
Laksh

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your responses I see u guys have empathized on call routing
and and UC hardware for backend deployments. However Telco OTTs are coming
up with directly provide these services over the cloud . Here is a
disruptive analysis :

Anyways, this might be not be so serious afterall . Just thought of
brainstorming .
Thanks guys for your responses again.

Didn't have time to go through the video, I believe WebRTC is nothing but
a Protocol, similar to SIP, H.323. Moreover, this protocol would only
appeal to the Web audience, just like Skype, or Google talk. You still need
to use UC hardware and their design for enterprise deployments. I mean we
don't use Google talk and Skype in companies right? SIP is open source, but
still Cisco uses it. As FAQ's suggest WebRTC is an open framework for
the web that enables Real Time Communications in the browser. If only UC
was that easy that could be implemented through browser, we didn't have to
work this hard for CCIE numbers. You might want to go through this...

You've clearly misinterpreted WebRTC here..
