[blu] Re: Asterisk Hardware

[Ben Jackson]

I too was in that boat, but then I picked up a bunch of older Cisco VoIP
phones for short money. It was cheaper then buying the FXS cards, plus,
Ethernet was already strung around the house.

There are a lot of Cisco 12SP/30VIP phones out there, and they have decent
support in *. I recommend them.

The Dev kit is calling out to me though, but the price is still quite
prohibitive.
