<div class="gmail_quote">Steve,</div><div class="gmail_quote"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="gmail_quote">You definitely have a better grasp on this topic than me. But I think it's a tough sell on the host based processing ... when you look at products like what audio codes can do on a card (3 DS-3's worth of transcoding) ... but I have had a couple of soft switch vendors claim though that they could do 2,000 calls per host (but I seriously doubt it).</div>
<div class="gmail_quote"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="gmail_quote">I agree that producing a card that does 120 channels is pretty worthless ... but having something that could do say a 1000 would be very helpful.</div>
<div class="gmail_quote"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="gmail_quote">G723 is a pretty big deal internationally ... I'm even seeing crazy requests like AMR from folks trying to originate VoIP off of mobile devices in Europe.</div>
<div class="gmail_quote"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="gmail_quote">But I agree just being able to g729 --> ulaw or ulaw --> g729 would be a great first step (host based or otherwise). </div>
