May I have the envelope please for the UC Product of the Year award winners?
Here’re three of my personal favorites:
Nortel’s Multimedia Conferencing (NMC): I use it everyday and in fact have my own virtualized bridge number (as does every other Nortel employee). I’ll even use the meet-me feature on two party calls- easier than chasing each other to connect! I really like the use of IM to convey a cheat sheet of chairperson commands and to track participant involvement. I couldn’t live without it!
Microsoft’s OCS 2007: It really is a neat product, especially when integrated with our business grade telephony solutions. BTW, NMC is also integrated with OCS- a first you can see at VoiceCon next week. IBM is investing $1B to strengthen its Sametime UC solution against OCS, also with our help.
FirstHand’s mobility solutions (now part of Counterpath, a Terry Matthews initiative): These folks have some interesting mobility technology. That's why they are one of our strategic partners.
Which are your favorites?

The list of actual winners is so long it might be easier to list those that didn't win an award.
