Well he got 2 cards to me overnight 2 weeks ago.  Also he gambled and put up the cash
to get the cards approved, and the Australian approval system says you have a choice
of paying a premium to him (~$200/card) while he recoups his costs, or getting
your own approval (~$15,000), or risking a fine (~$17,000), or getting
written permission from your Telco (free, has anyone tried?).

The other A-ticked cards start with OpenLine4 (~$1,000) for 4 port PSTN FXO,
or you can but Eicon Diva cards for ~$1,200 for 1 port BRI or ~$3,100 for 4 port BRI.

If you don't care about the A-tick then you can import your own AVM Fritz.

Hope this helps,
cheers,
