Microsoft has announced partnerships with nine manufacturers for the development of business phones that will ship with its Office Communicator client, enabling them to carry out IP telephony and unified comms via its Live Communications Serverplatform.
The vendors are LG Nortel, GN Netcom-Jabra, Plantronics, Polycom, Samsung, Tatung, Asus, Vitelix, and NEC. Mark Deakin, unified comms group product manager for Microsoft in the UK, said the companies will launch their devices to coincide with the launch in the third quarter of this year of the next generation of LCS, which is when it officially becomes Office Communications Server.

VoIP IP Telephony @ http://snapvoip.blogspot.com

I read at JAJAH blog that it has enterd into a new territory with it's VOIP software.
"Several weeks ago, we showed the world it was possible to make a regular JAJAH call directly from a Sony PSP. It got so much attention that we went to work on optimizing the experience and on bringing the solution to other consoles. Today we bring you a new version of JAJAH, designed to shine brightly on one of the most popular game consoles of our time, the Sony Playstation 3."

"JAJAH's vision is to bring free and ultra low cost calls to people everywhere," said Roman Scharf, JAJAH co-founder. "Introducing JAJAH to gamers is another way of bringing that vision to life."

JAJAH, the innovative web-based calling company, has brought its solution to the Sony Computer Entertainment PlayStation 3 system, allowing gamers to initiate free or ultra-low cost global phone calls directly from their game console. I think it is a whole new way for VOIP company to take.
Now where is this WII?
