VoIP TelePort tosses traditional phone systems

There's a neat new product being launched by a Seattle-based startup that aims to eliminate traditional phone systems within a business. The VoIP TelePort is a phone system built into a USB stick that turns any desktop PC into a VoIP-enabled PBX-like server. For under $250, a small business can have up to five connected phones, eliminating the more expensive hardware system while taking advantage of the cost savings of VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol). The VoIP TelePort is in beta testing now, and you can sign up to get a free unit on the website; the product will ship in June.
