IBM needs to do this Microsoft offers a very powerful Microsoft branded solution that has been in market for quite a while and some customers want an IBM branded solution. For those customers excited by this, but don't require the IBM branded solution, don't forget that many of IBMs existing telephony partners offer solutions today with similar capabilities, and additional features like Sametime web conferencing integration (which SUT does not provide) today that work with existing versions of Sametime. The hardest thing for SUT deployment is going to be IBMs global services requirement, IBM's specific hardware requirements when it first ships. I think SUT will potentially get most traction when any skilled IBM partner can deploy it for customers on any manufacturers hardware. It is indeed good stuff.
