Thanks guys! I have been silently watching this and doing my own bit
of research on a freely downloadable softphone with g.729! I didn't
find the quality of PortSIP that sh*t-hot but the Firefly version
sounds good. BTW, does anyone know if these can both be used within a
live service and freely distributed to our subscribers without
legal/license implications on g.729 codec libraries?

I wonder if the PortSIP SDK allows for the integration of advanced
media engines like that from GIPS? I think that will bring about the
quality into it but I wonder if that will lose the cost benefit that
it gives in its native form.

Also, anyone here know about multi-media web-based clients similar to
what Gizmo plug-in does? I have readmany discussions by people from
Mexuar and others but I want more something along the lines of the
Gizmo Plugin.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Thanks all
