Any demo on the web interface.  That is the only thing that could 
persuade me to shell out that kind of money for this box.  $100 per 
channel?  I though channel pricing was the last waning paradigm. 

Actually I would prefer standard hardware that I can purchase at any 
computer store.  The proprietary model works for companies with large 
distribution chains and local vendors that keep inventory on hand, like 
3com, Cisco, Toshiba, NEC, Avaya....

I like Switchvox for this reason, browse their website and take notes, 
kind of Dellish on the purchase page.  You can make OSCommerce do that 
with a little work.  Screenshots are nice.  I also like their selection 
wizard. 

Thanks,
Steve
