First off I am totally annoyed and let down by PC World Business (PCWB part of the Dixons Group). I ordered one of these babies from them over a month ago. After constantly chasing them up they finally told me they couldn't deliver, and have now only just returned the money they "stole" from me. I only bought from them because they showed a 4-day availability stock level! Now I'm screwed as it seems these are impossible to come by in the UK now since Sipura decided to discontinue it.. Now my back to my subject. Does anyone know of a decent replacement for the SPA3000. I need at least 1 FXO and 1 FXS but am willing to pay for 2 FXS on the same unit. What I'm looking for needs to be of a likable price to the SPA3000 which in it's hayday was retailing for around ?70 at some outlets. I'm primarily looking for something network attachable. But could stretch to USB or PCI if the price was right.. I'm steering away from PCI cards as they seem to have terrible issues with UK analogue lines such as not being able to detect hang ups.. (Also; the server I'd ideally like to add this capability too, has no free PCI slots..) Thanks for your time, Steve Daniels (I've been trying to send this for ages but crappy outlook keep sending it from another of my email accounts despite the fact that I keep setting it to send it via the correct one!)> -----Original Message----- > From: asterisk@stedaniels.co.uk [mailto:asterisk@stedaniels.co.uk] > Sent: None > To: asterisk@stedaniels.co.uk > Subject: Microsoft Office Outlook Test Message > > This is an e-mail message sent automatically by Microsoft Office Outlook's > Account Manager while testing the settings for your POP3 account.-------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

After my ongoing experience of being a customer of Currys (part of Dixons Group PLC), I can only suggest that NOONE SANE should ever purchase anything from any part of Dixons Group PLC, including Currys, Dixons PCWorld MasterCare. They are a total waste of time/money. Liars, Corporate liars, and Damn Corporate Liars.
