Useful, but it requires a signed client with permissions to install a DLL.

Once you are able to do that, you can do anything -- install a full
softphone, send the voice to any destination (not just back to the
server) -- and of course take over the other person's machine so they
should be very wary of approving the client.

What would be more useful is an applet that can run as a pure
applet.  That's forced to only talk to the server that served
it, but it doesn't need approval.

Or, in theory the voip client going into the new flashplayer.
