It's possible to get a full audio spectrum in some kind of a dial-up Internet 
connection.

The very point is that users will ask for Hi-FI phones. Why not try it
in IAX ? (at least with a poor codec in a private lan).

It can be done in real time. However I don't know what is the best streaming 
codec. I guess that DivX is not suitable for streaming.

Well the iaxcomm lib will have to support the new codec as the skype software
does with its own. Skype is also selling hard phones, isn't it ?
