Joachim,
Have you had a chance to test one of these?
I've been playing with the Polycom cx300:
http://windowspbx.blogspot.com/2010/01/our-video-review-of-polycom-cx300.html
It appears like a lot of the integration only works with Enterprise Voice. (the big thing being OC call pickup and hangup controlled from phone only works if EV is enabled?)
I'm trying figure out if I'm doing something wrong or if ent. voice is the missing piece.

No, sorry we didn't test this device. Currently we are waiting on our Sales Kit from Plantronics. Keep you updated.
Joachim,
I'm struggling to grasp UC and how a small business can take advantage. Often a call comes in on a land line and I would like to transfer that call to VoIP and use OC 2007. Is that possible?
Thanks.

Hmm I really dont I understand your questions. Can you be more briefly?
Expanding on my question. We’re a small business of 10 and provide headsets to many companies of similar size and structure…..We hear how great UC is but I can’t grasp how it helps a small business yet. For us we have an Avaya Partner phone. I’ve been toying with the idea of implementing OC 2007. As far as I can tell, the two don’t bridge together. We could use OC to IM, chat and use video in-house and if I’m working remotely, I could still be in contact with my staff.
So ... If a customer calls on the land line, and I’m working remotely, is there a way to transfer that call to OC and turn it into a VoIP call that I can take remotely?
For the most part, a small business is 95% of the time under one roof. I feel that UC is for a larger platform that bridges companies in different locations (or outside sales reps) together. Are there advantages for a small business that I’m missing. I would hate to implement OC for $2500-$5000 and not have some kind of benefit.
Thanks.
