applications, which run on devices such as personal computers (PCs)
or personal digital assistants (PDAs) or can be integrated into
set-top boxes, embedded devices, instant messenger applications and
alike. When an Xten softphone is connected to a service provider's
network, the user can make and receive calls to and from other
"on-net" callers (IP-to-IP) and/or "off-net" callers
(IP-to-PSTN/Cellular) with the same quality of service they would
expect from an IP handset. However, at a fraction of the cost,
