The PPC-6700 (<a href="http://www.mobiletechreview.com/Sprint-PPC-6700.htm">http://www.mobiletechreview.com/Sprint-PPC-6700.htm</a>) that I am testing right now may not be able to run Asterisk, but it sure can connect via
802.11b to my Asterisk system. Unfortunately, the operating system does not seem to provide access to the "earphone" speaker that the regular phone uses, and instead only to the loudspeaker on the back of the phone. So if I want to use VoIP on it, I have to have a headset.
<br><br>Additionally, the device seems to periodically "freeze up" for a period of time ranging from 1 to 2 seconds during SIP/RTP calls. The call does not drop, but the interruption makes it pretty unusable. This happens even with no other applications running.
<br><br>The above combined with the fact that the 802.11b network in the campus where I wanted to use this device seems to have a severe jitter problem that is incorrectable by a reasonably-sized jitter buffer means that I am probably going to abandon this experiment, but it was interesting nonetheless.

But can they run Asterisk and create an IAX trunk back to your PBX while<br>running a softphone?<br><br>I thought not.<br>-Kerry<br><br></blockquote></div><br>
