I've noticed that a few people here are from Australia. I'm wondering where you all get your hardware from. I'll probably order some of the X100P cards from Digium soon (and possibly some FXO cards), but for other things such as ATAs, etc. However - these obviously aren't ACA compliant. Does anybody know of compatible hardware (for POTS lines) that is ACA compliant? The cheapest I've found some products are: - Cisco ATA 186 - AU$370.34 from a company here in Sydney - Cisco 7960G - $798.34 (excluding power supply and cord) from same company. I've also noticed that the same company mentioned sells "SIP and MGCP License for single 7960 IP phone" (Cisco product code SW-SM-UL-7960) for AU$288.29 incl. GST - are these licenses required for interfacing with Asterisk, or only when using the Cisco Callmanager? I'm new to all this, so any advice would be appreciated :) Thanks, Shaun

One of then is SIP, but it can Be MGCP or Skinny. I don't know if you can buy a phone with SIP image directly.. then you don't have to pay more for another firmware. All I can say is that the quality of the sound is brilliant on those phones, even with G.729 (maybe just a little bit crispy). The same aplies to ATA-186. They are two images: one with Skinny and MGCP and the other one with H.323 and SIP. Unfortunately (or not?) you cannot use one line with H.323 and one with SIP..
