And, if the Other Phone is not reachable, or does not want your data,
the average SIP phone keeps sending away until the operator stops it?  I
always thought it was a good principle to not send significant amounts
of data anywhere without direct confirmation that it is arriving and is
useable.  Good thing your average SIP phone is not yet sending video.
