I have setup a default mumble-server installation on
vm3.documentfoundation.org, port 64738.
Anyone who likes to test mumble, please log in with your desired
username, then right klick on your user in the channel list and select
"register". Then drop me a short note and I will give you admin rights.

I can see your point here, execpt for the fact that firewalls and
low-bandwidth connections are no issues when using mumble in my
experience. And I just found out that there are Android and iPhone
clients for Mumble. But I fear they're no real alternative to "real"
phones as they are as it seems veeeeery beta and some companies might
cause problems when using VOIP-applications from a phone.

The channel and ACL-centric approach in mumble is very suitable for
teaming, and having another tool at hand is never wrong I think.
