[Asterisk-biz] RE: Beta of WebPhone IAX client Avaiable (CuPoTKa)

[Greg Renouf]

I think that one of the best advantages of the webphone concept is that it
can be distributed to less-technical users without asking them to go through
an install process.  

There is a similar product located at http://www.geocities.com/babarnazmi/ ,
this webphone seems to be less of a hassle to install, but it seems that
development has stalled.

We tested your webphone, and found that our calls had an incredibly long
delay (20-30 seconds.)  I tried connecting to 2 different * servers, but had
the same experience both times.

Some recommendations:

1. When the user presses one of the number keys, the application should
assume that they are dialing a number.  It seems that the current version
requires the user to click on the 'lcd' display 1st.

2. A phone book would be nice.

3. Add buttons for redial, missed calls, last dialed, etc...

I agree that the install needs to be cleaned up. But I see a lot of
value even if the phone cannot receive calls. 
Do you have a package that I can install in my local web server to play
with?
