The corporate office of my new employer is on the ball when it comes to technology. You would think a 100 plus year old publishing company would smell like old books. Not so. I installed a Cisco SoftPhone, part of Cisco's AVVID product line, and tested it today. I am happy to report that it works very well over a T1, Cable modem, and even 802.11b. The sound quality is just as good as a regular digital or analog phone. What is even better is that my voicemails are sent to me attached to emails, making them portable objects and freeing them of the confines of a voice only system. My laptop is now the hub for all of my communications: email, instant messaging, and voice. I will only have to use my cell phone when I can't get on a decent network connection. [X-log]
