[Asterisk-Dev] Embedded Asterisk

[Andy Powell]

Hi Lars,

Wooooaahh!! That's a reply and a half! :D I feel guilty for taking you
away from your work now... hope the meeting goes really well - keep us updated...
and good luck!!

I must admit i do like the Allwell boxes, I just wish they'd do one with all the extra audio
and video stuff removed and 2 pci slots. With 2 slots and when Digium release the 4 port
fxo modules too - this could quite easily become a pbx with a pick and mix effect for the
end user ( eg 2 fxo's and 6 fxs etc)..

I have to confess to making the assumption that you were doing this as a commercial
product, mainly because I didn't see a link to your site with your experiences and lots
of nice pictures (a la mp3 player mania). So my apologies there. 

I'd really be interested in setting up a development environment here to mimic what you
have done. My biggest issue - I guess like yours - is cash... oh and getting the Allwell
boxes here in Holland..

You have changed my point of view, and I'd love to get in on what you've achieved so far..

Again, best of luck with your meeting today... let's hope you get what you want from it :D

Andy
