[Freeswitch-users] Howler - Gone?

[Kristian Kielhofner]

I was working on a project with IBM, speex, and the University of Sao Paulo
to do this a few years ago. Very interesting.

Either way Sony disabled the "install other OS" feature so no more Linux on
the PS3.

But finally howler show to us something good: With the Cell chips used in
the Leadteck (are the same on a PS3), we can make a transcoding equipment
with a PS3 for $299 USD... :)

Using the Ethernet of the PS3 we can send the RTP to the transcoding
software and the device has enough power to convert 400+ concurrent
calls.... only think about it.

Best Regards... Fernando Romo
