As one of the poor bastards still involved in rolling out VoIP over satellite delivered IP at the moment, I can safely say I'm (currently) happy noone's trying to push H.323 over IPv6 over these small-sized satellite links. Lord knows we have enough trouble getting concurrent calls through 20 + 20 + byte overheads when the voice payload's -20- bytes. (That said, I'd be so much happer if the current trend 'ere wasn't to -avoid- delivering serial ports for the satellite service so we can run VoFR or PPP w/header compression - instead being presented IP connectivity only at either end, but you can't have everything..)
