kphone is alright if you want to add a *ton* of extra dependencies to
PXES.  I don't think it would be very *thin* if we had to add kdelibs
and qt to it, now would it?

That and I work for a telecommunications provider that has quite a bit
of SIP/VoIP gear/servers, and trust me, kphone leaves a lot to be
desired.
