Re: VoIP on iSeries

Be prepared to defend the cost/benefit of iSeries hardware

options for ...
Yes indeed. My only point is that if one wants to use their iSeries for VoIP, one should be aware of the arguments against that position before one suggests it. Forewarned is forearmed.
One final thought. To re-emphasize what Al said, in order to use VoiP you will throw away the phone on your desk and replace it with a SIP phone, or with an application on your PC like Gizmo or X-Lite. This is roughly equivalent to suggesting replacing your 3196s with PCs, and can be a difficult sell. That is, one may end up trying to pitch VoiP _and_ iSeries rather than just iSeries. I just don't see that working out.
