asterisk users - May 2008 - Fax Machine Options

Is my only solution to add a fax machine to our VOIP only setup by using an
IAXy?
I should specify the office people want a traditional fax machine in the sense
that
fax's be sent and received from a physical unit, they don't want an
email to fax setup.
They have a dedicated sip did provisioned just for the fax.

What are others using?

Thanks!

Cisco gateway with T.38 support. That's the only real way to do faxing
through asterisk. I think a VG200 with newer firmware will support SIP
+  T.38 but don't buy on my suggestion because I've never used that
device outside call manager configuration.

Or see if your VoIP provider supports T.38 fax but you must use SIP in
that case. It will work very well once you get it working.... hint:
check udptl.conf
