Over 2.23 million IP-only PBX lines were sold in 2Q07 generating revenues of over $208 million during the quarter. Cisco was the overall market leader.
Among the non-Cisco shipments in the category, Mitel emerged leader with 42% market share, followed by 3Com, ShoreTel, and Inter-Tel (also part of Mitel now).
North America accounted for nearly 68% of the pure IP PBX license shipments during 2Q07, followed by EMEA. Shipment in Asia-Pacific was minimal during the period.
Please note that effective 1Q07, iLocus has discontinued coverage of shipments related to legacy PBX upgrades or the hybrid systems. We focus on only the pure IP PBX shipments in the enterprise VoIP equipment quarterly tracking service.

So I guess being pure IP means they don't connect to carrier by t1 or any pots services?. I also assume that you have confirmed that there are no POTS gateway services for things such as lift, fax, modem services ? I have yet to see an implementation of "Full IP" perhaps CISCO will end-of-life FXS, FXO, T1, BRI, E1 interfaces. Nearly every system sold today is hybred yes some are 95% IP or even 95% TDM but still this does not change the fact HYBRED SYSTEMS. Why stop reporting - Perhaps its not a comfortable picture for some....

this research appears very north american centric. To suggest players like 3com and shoretel are nos 3/4 in the market makes no logical sense whatsoever given their very weak presence in other leading regions
