Reco,
I'm currently using H.323 VOIP solution for (4) offices spread over the midwest and east coast. I'm using Linksys RV082's with IPSec/IKE and sound quality is excellent. Had some problems with an office in Illinois who was using a wireless Internet provider, but recently switched to a provider that has a closer antenna and all is well. My pings average below 100 ms. though. I would say as long as your connection is farily stable you should be in business.
H.323 solution utilizes OpenH323 Gatekeeper and SJ Phone clients.
Good luck.

gacollier,
What type of bandwidth are you running for those offices and how many concurrent calls? Also, what type of system? Just curious, as we are trying to get VoIP approved for us...
Thanks,

Matt,
I have a full T-1 ant our main office running an H.323 Gatekeeper (GnuGateKeeper to be exact).
Branch offices are connected via DSL, Cable, and Wireless Internet. Speeds range between 1.5/384 to 768/256. Ping rates from main site to branch locations are 120ms max.
Softphones on users desktop is SJPhone by SJLabs.
Quality is very good. It's tough to say how many concurrent calls I can handle. I have about 70 users and haven't had problems, but it's tough getting folks to use the VOIP becuase the regular phone is what they're used to using.
Good luck.
