Guy Kewney from eWeek tests the technologies that try to satisfy this market today and finds nothing but disappointment. " The best result we got was that just once, I heard his voice with a delay of about 15 seconds, saying "You just have to speak up!"--which was part of a 20-second burst of speech from him. The rest was lost.""

    Our company has 10 telecommuters located all over the place, from the midwest to Key West, and VOIP works fine for us. We have a central Call Processor that links us to the landline phone company, and we have direct calling for intercom use. Works like a charm.
