Internet Telephony Conference and Expo 2008

NTS goes to ITEXPO

The sun rises early in Woodland Hills as we start our trek to the downtown convention center to visit the ITExpo.

We meet some old Realshare friends, John and Ken at the SIP Trunking tutorials
The exhibit hall contains many more booths than in the past. Perhaps because the VON show is not going to be around any more companies will come to this show.
A simple Polycom voip phone.
A more featureful phone, note the wireless headset at the right.
A nice phone with several presences.

The Syspine Digital Operator Phone System is an advanced VoIP phone system powered by Microsoft® Response Point™. http://www.syspine.com/product.html

The MAX IP Response Point conference phone from ClearOne

Adtran makes nice phones.
Plantronics will be coming out with a SIP product in February according to the booth dude.
Linksys makes a lot of different IP products.

Snom phones.


A couple of the products from IR-Phone

We have sniffed around the net before trying to find a way to identify people by a simple voice print rather than having them enter their credit card every time. These guys may be a solution. They claim a lot of good things, it will be worth playing with it. Zehu

Giga and Mega pans

These are my first giga pan posts, these pans are too small for gigapan, so I guess they are just megapans!
