Since incorporating Linksys under the Cisco brand nearly a year ago, Cisco has continued to develop a range of new products for SMB customers. Under their newly christened Small Business Pro Series, Cisco has recently released five new IP telephone models. The SPA501G, SPA502G, SPA504G, SPA508G and SPA509G IP phones pick up where the popular Linksys SPA94X series phones left off, and are much more of a “Cisco” product than simply a re-branded Linksys product.

These products are not officially available until 9/2, but we managed to wrangle some advanced stock available now for purchase at VoIPSupply.com. Read on for the highlights…. (more…)

Over the last few weeks you’ve seen a few posts on the VoIP Insider about the upcoming ClueCon Telephony Developers Conference taking place in Chicago next week.

In case you missed those posts and haven’t yet heard of ClueCon, ClueCon is an event that brings together the entire spectrum of Telephony.

Besides the opportunity to network and meet with some of the best in the open source world, I’m excited to be going to ClueCon because of these sessions:

VoIP-enabling GSM with T.R. Misner
Open Source Telephony in an Economic Downturn with John Todd
Replacing Legacy TDM Voice Platforms with FreeSWITCH for Fun and Profit with David Knell

Google voice doesn’t get my number

July 29, 2009 by Garrett Smith

For a virtual number service, Google Voice seems to be an enormous amount of press these days.

Maybe because its Google. Or even because the VoIP industry has been rather light on news of further innovation. Perhaps it’s just because people love free stuff.
