“There is nothing to configure, just launch it and you can start making calls. Skype on the other hand is a whole new network, with a new client and a new address book to manage.”

“Standards means choice, and choice is good for everyone. Everything about SIPphone and PhoneGaim is standards-based. Proprietary systems may look attractive in the short term, but in the long run standards win. Why? Because standards allow every hardware company, software developer and network to work to advance the industry. Proprietary systems instead are tied to the progress and fate of one company. If Skype users want to talk to a non-Skype user, they are out of luck. Nor can outside companies or individuals add cool new services, hardware or applications to Skype without their permission. This is definitely not the best way to drive innovation and growth on a platform.”
