Finally! The book every VOIP manager needs

Why in the world did it take so long for such a book to be created? Real world stuff, demystified from needs assessment to deployment & configuration to operations to troubleshooting (the Packet Island stuff is cool - I don't have this yet but am checking it out). Thankyou!
