Re: Nortel Phone System and Integration with iSeries ?

Hello Kirk, 

We're going to be working with the new IBM 3COM offering very soon to 
integrate to the iSeries via native API calls. 

If the Nortel systems have a Windows based API, we can figure out a way to 
integrate to the iSeries with some native commands. 

If you're interesting in discussing this more, feel free to contact me 
directly off list.
