That's a cool idea but unfortunately we are using the 3com NBX stuff
which is based on Wind River and we don't have any way to know that a
voice conversation is going on. I suppose we could build a way based
on snooping the network though. Have to think about that.

By the way, I'd love to replace the 3com stuff with something based
on Linux. I strongly suspect that the phones could do better than they
are doing and we're getting the short end of the stick by going with some
closed answer. But all the open answers don't come close to offering
what 3com does.
