asterisk users - Nov 2009 - Will Digium iaxy stop working with asterisk 1.6; as it is discontinued?

Digium has discontinued their ATA iaxy adapter; don't blame them, too
expensive so they can not compete.

The adapter is upgraded automaticaly when it is connected to new asterisk
version; since this adapter is discontinued will it still work with asterisk 1.6
and beyond or will it be\ just a "door stopper"?

There is no reason why it should not continue to work.  However, there are
certain features that the IAXy will never have.  One particular item is that
you'll need to turn off calltoken support for peers/users which specify an
IAXy, as the firmware will never be modified to support that.  In addition,
the IAXy will never support any codec in the extended space (it probably
doesn't have enough CPU to master other codecs anyway).
