[AusNOG] batch of linksys phones

[Joseph Goldman]

Unfortunately, all too often, Telstra Business rep walks in, says "I can 
bundle all this for you, with this hardware, on this technology" and the 
bundled price blows them away so they go with it.

The other thread going on recently here re-enforces the fact that the EU 
doesn't care what tech is used to deliver the phone call, rather that 
it's delivered and in a cost-effective way.

It probably happens more often then you think. Mostly because a lot of 
smaller IT firms implement VoIP PBX (with Open Source such as Elastix) 
with no decent tweaking, over an ADSL2 connection (typically shared with 
their data), and no POTS backup in the box. One failure and the business 
they set it up for loses all faith in the system.
