It's a 11.8kbps codec that's supposed to improve the quality for 
non-voice signal etc. And, according to this 
http://www.voiceage.com/prodg729.php, it's more CPU intensive than 
G.729A. It's listed at 25MIPS vs 10MIPS for G.729A. Also needs more RAM 
compared to G.729A. I don't think it qualifies as 'play nicely on lower 
power hardware'.
