<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi folks,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm a newbie with a question about small,
appliance-style applications of Asterisk.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is anyone familiar with the RouterBoard mini-PC
found at this website: <A
href="http://www.routerboard.com/">http://www.routerboard.com/</A>? Specifically,
the RouterBoard 230 has a PCI slot which might accommodate a Digium Wildcard
TDM400P FXS/FXO interface card. The RouterBoard unit supports up to
512 MB of RAM and has a slot for a CompactFlash or micro hard drive, Ethernet
ports etc. It supposedly works with Linux 2.4 & 2.6 kernels. My thought
is to take one of these and marry it to the Digium card for a very small SOHO
type PBX that could support a mix of Analog & IP phones. The WIKI makes
reference to the Soekris mini-PCs, but these look a bit underpowered to
me.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any thoughts from the experts would be welcome. If
anyone has a success story on the small, appliance-style application I
would be curious to hear it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks!</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
