What Would You Do With Ten Free UK DIDs?!

During last weeks VUC call someone mentioned that there was a new service called UKDDI offering free DIDs in the UK.  They offer ten free numbers from locations all around the UK, where each can be mapped to a SIP URI. It took a couple of minutes for the utility of this to really sink in. [...]

New Jabra Headsets

Thanks to Engadget for pointing out Jabra’s latest product offerings for the uppity office dweller. OMG, these look nice! Most especially the DECT version pictured here. As they so rightly point out, these are fairly over-the-top kinds of devices for most people. But remember that nothing succeeds like excess! The real question in my mind is about [...]

HD Connect Gets Rolling

Of all the things discussed at Pulver’s HDComms event in May the one thing that spurred everyone to agreement was the idea that wideband telephony needs much greater public visibility. To that end Mr Pulver proposed the formation of a trade group to be called HD Connect. This group would promote wideband telephony in various [...]

David Rowe On Royalty Free Codecs

What with the gathering storm that is wideband telephony there’s a lot of rumbling about codecs going on at the moment. Such discussions usually include at least a couple of open source proponents wondering why Speex is not more widespread. It’s a very good question. Speex most commonly shows up in soft phones. That’s nice, but [...]

Gigaset Gear Starting To Hit US Retailers

Earlier today Michael White at E4 tweeted that he had just received his shipment of Gigaset SL78H handsets. The SL78H is the high-end handset that Gigaset is offering as an optional addition to the A580IP and S675IP basic SIP/DECT systems. I’ll be going into detail about it eventually, but not until after I’ve reviewed the two [...]

Skype to my hosted pbx

Great call to test Skype yesterday! Thanks to Tim Panton for hooking that up.
Karl (I think it was Karl) asked me about how I got the Skype call to
my phone, the call that started the whole thing.
Actually, Tim and I had exchanged a few Twitter messages and he
finally gave up on sending 140 characters at a time and called my

Posts for last Friday

Hi,
There was some delay in the updates on Talkshoe. I see that the new
versions are now uploaded. These are recorded at ZipDX.com and should
reflect the better quality of g722. Also included (for better or
worse) the IRC transcript.
FWIW, I also tried Adobe's new language transcription module that
comes with CS4. It's so far off, it's a joke so we won't be wasting
