Re: [asterisk-biz] SIP Client for iPhone

 

  To be straight, Apple will benefit big time if the iPhone connects to voip networks.  Steve Jobs, however for the time being, is better off playing best buddies with the cellular carriers (AT&T).  For how long? Who knows, but for sure, the moment he can kick them in the butt he will.  How curious for example, is the fact that a minor (as in can’t be prosecuted) from NJ breaks the lock on the phone, de facto opening the sale of hundreds of thousands of units that will end up connected throughout the world on different carriers, all without breaking the exclusivity contract Apple signed with AT&T.

 

  Conclusion: yes, one day the iPhone will be a SIP phone.

Tim Panton did some work with Savaje mobile phone. Basically because the hardware was never designed for it the project was technically never able to be completed. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Apple was similar because of the tie in with the carriers.

 

They don’t want you using data for voip – get over it and choose a different brand manufacturer.

There is not yet, but some work being done on it.  Still some technical hurdles to be handled on accessing the audio devices on the iphone properly, the rest is comparatively trivia (and mostly already working).
