asterisk users - Oct 2005 - TDM01B vs. X100P

Hi,

I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question, but I have not been
able to find an answer by searching the web.

I would like to add an FXO port or two to my Asterisk setup, and I am
wondering if there is any good reason to spend $120 on a TDM01B or $180 on a
TDM02B instead of paying $9.95 or $19.90 for one or two "new, genuine,
unopened" X100P cards on eBay.
I am not particularly worried about running out of PCI slots, as I don't
envision ever needing to add any other line cards to this machine. However,
if there is some kind of substantial quality compatibility difference
between the two cards, I would like to know about this before wasting (even
a small amount of) money on X100Ps.

Thanks,
Rusty

Rusty,

You do defenitely not want the X100P it's discontinued and rightly so, 
horrible card.
