I understand where you are coming from but I am sure it will be a pleasant surprise for everyone to see how Cisco will address the complexity of implementing and managing this "dual call control system" and come up with an easier-to-manage single call control architecture with MOC integration.....just wait and see a little more... When a customer mandates Microsoft desktops Cisco will integrate tightly and lead in user experience.

Barry - Certainly, cost benefit is one of the factor that helps many customers consider adding Mobility in the UC mix. A lot more details can be found in Features and Services guides (as well as SRNDs) of CUCM 6.x, 7.x ad 8.x versions. Cisco Unified Mobility gives users the ability to redirect incoming IP calls from Cisco Unified Communications Manager to different designated phones, such as cellular phones. Users can also transition active calls between their Cisco desktop and mobile phone without interruption. Using Cisco Unified Mobility, employees can:     * Streamline communications, by giving callers one number to dial, and by redirecting incoming calls to        multiple phones     * Move active calls between their Cisco desktop and mobile phone to take advantage of the best available        resource     * Simplify message management, by directing unanswered calls to a Cisco Unity or Cisco Unity Connection        account     * Create personalized access lists that determine which business calls get extended to alternate phone        numbers, and at what point that occurs Features like Mobile Voice Access (MVA) provide mobile users with the ability to make calls from their mobile phone as if they were calling from their enterprise IP desk phone. This also provides a cost savings in terms of toll charges for long distance or international calls, and it provides the enterprise with an easy way to track phone calls made by employees via a uniform and centrally located set of call detail records. Cisco UC Mobility features can also be integrated with Microsoft OCS solution hence adding support for MOC client to act as a Remote destination. The more you explore, the more  interest you will find in this topic helping drive the need considering UC Mobility features deployed in an optimized manner. Hope this helps a bit. Regards Saeed ...
