How is the current sound quality?
Is it "really really good"?
The state of the art in VoIP and cellular is *better* than POTS lines.
Calling BS on this. In practice, the delay/bufferbloat, crap echo
cancellation and lossy compression w/ all the in-use codecs sound like
ass compared to a clean AMPS or POTS line.
Specifications wise, the audio bandwidth would be better (because of
the lossy compression), and if you could get the delay down to something
lower than transatlantic,it _should_ sound better, but to find this in
the real world is rare. Intra organization (pbx) calls vs. voip ->
crappy clec -> sip -> over public internet.
Is the state-of-the-art actually full-duplex instead
of "first talker
mutes the other guy.."?
