SIP is a method of communication, much as Skinny is. It's a protocol. You
would still need some method to connect in between various networks
(old-style PSTN or new-style IP) if that's where your destination is
located!

Thanks Scott.

I also noticed that Cisco called the 7960 phones the "SIP phone". So what
does SIP do? Would I still need a PSTN connection if my phone is a 7960 IP
SIP phone?

Thanks,
L.

That would be essentially correct. It seems pretty damned easy when you
