RE: Voice pod

Even CUPC and IPC don't do globalization well and reacts somehow strangely
to calling number transformations, unlike the physical phone.

Softphones don't do globalization well and quite a few other things are
missing. They are useful, but still need hard phones (even the 60's are
pretty limited).

If you can find 7965 for $100 per, I'll buy a few :) Need to add a 3750
to the mix as well.

Also, you forgot about the platform to run all the vm'd servers on, need
to add that as it isn't trivial.

Good afternoon, folks of the networking Universe.

       Ever wondered how much would a Voice CCIE pod cost to have one at
home? After receiving a usual spam from our usual correspondents in
sales, I
thought - lets calculate what the price would be, and it is quite a sum,
even if all the software is trial. Check below, just for your amusement.

Cheers,
