[*] Shaw not selling VoIP?

Its a bit interesting that if you call Shaw and ask "Is your service
VoIP?" they will adamantly deny it, saying instead that its "Digital
Phone Service, not VoIP".

Yet, here is the data sheet from Motorola on the modem:

http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A//broadband.motorola.com/catalog/product_documents/SBV5120%2520Data%2520Sheet.pdf&ei=9sMMQ62OEJOS-gHpzqzTCQ

(if that URL is too long for you, just google for: Surfboard SBV 5120 )

Note that official name for the device is the "SURFboard SBV5120 VoIP
Cable Modem" and the word VoIP is used several times throughout the data
sheet. It even goes on to mention its using g711.
