Nifty idea, mostly pushed by [Cisco]. The idea is that instead of wiring your buildings with [Ethernet] and phone, you just wire them with [Ethernet] and you use [VoiceOverIP]. So you have very nifty phones that plug into Ethernet and use [DHCP], [H.323] etc. Very nifty.

+!Cisco IP Phone 7912 Series
+
+First Looks:
+
+!!Pros
+* Looks cool!
+
+!!Cons
+*Where the cords (Ethernet/power) attach at the back, they interfere with the phone sitting down on the desk. E.g. Phone has a bracket that sists phone at 45 degree angle to desk - Ethernet plugs into the back between the desk and bottom of this bracket - would be better to have no rubber-boot/plug-doo-dad-wotsit on the UTP plug... on second thoughts, I think Cisco' book mentioned that you should use no jackets on the UTP plugs...
+
+
+*Does not come with SIP image pre-loaded... you need to get a Ciso SMARTNet support contract, then when you have that, create an account on their website, then upgrade your Cisco account with the SMARTNet details, which let you access the SIP images for the phone!
+
+Requires a 48V DC @ 200mA power supply - somewhat hard to come by... cheaply.
