Intel Announces FXS Card. Eh?

Source: saunderslog.com

This past week Intel (INTC. announced the Intel 600SM PCI Phone Adaptor. Billed as a means to allow you to talk using PC VoIP clients, but be “untethered” from your PC, it was hard to figure out exactly what this device was. After digging through the marketing spin, it quickly became apparent that the 600SM PCI card is in fact, nothing more than a common-a-garden FXS card, bundled with some software to let it be controlled by and control various popular PC softclients like Skype, CounterPath XTEN and so on. Dan Warne provides more details. It’s an ATA, controlled by proprietary software, on a PCI card.

Dumb. Maybe not. Coming to you straight from the Department of Rampant Speculation… Available only to PC OEMs, and not to the end user, this may be the precursor of an initiative to put an ATA on every motherboard. That would change the landscape.
