Hi all, I've put together a quick petition, in hopes that we can possibly persuade Sipura (or any other large-scale IP handset manufacturer) to include firmware support for IAX. The IAXy has proven that an IAX product is in demand, and very useful, and I think we'd all like to see a handset manufacturer follow Digium's lead. I'm not particularly endorsing Sipura, however I do know that they have seriously considered support for IAX, and have decided to hold off until "the demand is there". I'm hoping that with some numbers, we can prove to them that the demand is already here, and that IAX is already a viable technology. I'd like to encourage everyone to show your support -- hopefully Sipura, and/or other manufacturers will see these hard names and numbers, and realize it's time to move something into production. Petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/IAXPhone Thanks, -d

We target Sipura because they are relatively a small company, the core developers at Sipura used to work for Cisco and worked on their ATA product before they started their own company. A small company is much more likely to try something new with little lead-time. Also access to decision-makers is much easier at a company like Sipura, I talked to one of the developers about a year and a half ago when they were going to market with the SPA-2000 and at that time they seemed willing to try lots of new things. I even mentioned Asterisk and IAX to them but they had never heard of it. I'm sure if they get a list of hundreds of people who would buy an IAX adapter that they would at least do a test release of IAX2 firmware.

Why target sipura? What happened to snom who at one stage had a IAX (version 1) firmware? Why not target polycom/cisco, or any of the other 100 manufacturers/resellers/re-badging companies??
