VOIP Phones?

raid517 · 04-29-2005, 02:41 AM

Is anyone producing or selling any VOIP Phones that are fully compatable with linux? What about support in the Linux kernel? has any work been done in that field yet? I mean I know there is support for large vendors, but what about ordinary users?

It's a bit of a pain in the butt to have to have a PC to use VOIP anyway. I don't see why they don't just make phones that connect via a router and don't need a PC at all.

There are VOIP adapters that you can attach a regular phone.
