Comments on: Two phones that pass in the night http://mrblog.org/2004/04/27/two-phones-that-pass-in-the-night/ Mr Blog. Very technical, or silly, sometimes absurd.

I wanted to suggest adding www.freepatentsonline.com to the page. This web site has free PDF downloading (instead of having to page through TIFFs like at the US PTO). It is by far the best free patent searching site. I saw that you have a page that discusses patent-related resources at http://www.toyz.org/mrblog/archives/00000145.html.

Utilisation of an ENUM type system is critical to the general take up of VoIP type networks.

It will happen – at some point.

The larger networks (such as pulver) need to take a certain amount of responsibility and kick-start it properly.

imho.

Good stuff. The new (still in beta) SIP PBX option of the Intertex IX66 also will support doing ENUM lookups to multiple registries.

The other thing about e164.org today is that makes it seem somewhat Asterisk focused is the way that it has a strong bias on numbers, instead of ascii URIs, as destinations.

Very cool though, Duane. Good stuff.

I'm also lead to believe Cisco VOIP products and the very latest versions SER (SIP Express Router) CVS also support mutliple enum registries and over time and with time permitting we will be continually updating our documentation sections to reflect other software and hardware products.<br /> <br /> Currently we only allow 1 record for each number, that being either H323, SIP or IAX2 URLs, again in future with time permitting we're hoping to expand this to include a lot more information such as mailto records, or even ICQ URIs. So instead of needing to know 1,000,000 different ways to contact someone potentially it's possible in future to just need one, their phone number.

Another benefit of not using a VoIP provider is that you never have to worry about the number portability issues that plagued cellular phones for years. When you commit to doing VoIP, do it right from the beginning, and use e164.org so that you're not locked into the provider's dialup information. You wouldn't run your business with a Hotmail address: why run your phones through a similar provider? You hit the nail on the head, and need to keep hammering.
