Good VoIP Deployment Guidelines (Do Not Exist?)

I get questions regarding VoIP deployment all the time. Sometimes it is someone looking for simple and cheap Enterprise VoIP, who are unsure if VoIP can be deployed securely with those two parameters in the equation. More often it is the security aware people who are willing to invest almost anything to make it work, but cannot. As always, there is no silver bullet solution for either. If you look at my past opinions, I keep changing my mind between cheap that works, and secure that doesn't. What do you think? Which way should we go in VoIP?
