Introduction to SIP IP Telephony Systems - Technology Basics- Services- Economics- and Installation

1 stars (Little useful information) - This book tries to dumb-down SIP. It looks like it wants to be a training manual for a "Learning SIP" course, but doesn't provide any real technical detail. It is poorly written and a tedious read. This is the first sentance: "SIP is a standardized technology that allows for the sending of voice, data, and video between communication devices on public (e.g. Internet) or private (e.p. local area networks) data networks." ... and it doesn't get any better after that.

The material is appropriate for anyone who's getting involved with telecom billing for the first time or who has been working on the periphery of the billing systems and would like to know more.
