Camelot Corporation's DigiPhone for Mac has features such as encryption, Direct Dial Technology, and the Global DigiPhone Directory. These features are in addition to full duplex sound, caller identification, call screening, E-mail messaging, call mute, personal phone book, and adjustable sound quality. Most importantly, it is also cross platform compatible so that Macintosh users can talk to PC users, and vice versa. Camelot has also done a great job with its product by introducing adjustable sound quality to make up for limited bandwidth. Off-line voice mail allows callers to leave messages for WebPhone users who are not logged onto the Internet.
Conference calls and call transfers can be setup between PC users by using a drag and drop function.
WebPhone also provides secure features such as password protection and party specific call blocking. But, software can only do so much. The underlying hardware must be able to competently support the code written for it. In this light, Cirrus Logic has unveiled a suite of integrated telephony chipsets that will support next-generation communications in multimedia PCS and Internet appliances. The FastPath platform is capable of supporting the concurrent operation of a wide range of advanced data, fax, and voice features up to 33.6 Kbps.
