L.S.

This is a quote from Junghanns website:

> While an incoming CAPI call is alerting it can be forwarded to another

...
> So you could use this to deflect calls when your B channels are all busy. 

And:
> Call deflection can be very useful combined with call forwarding (in
> the Asterisk dialplan) to forward incoming calls to a mobile phone and
> still see the original caller ID on the display (see Call Forwarding).

This says Call Deflection can only redirect an incoming call to another ISDN 
number.
So what is the trick to deflect to a mobile phone, especially when both B
channels 
are busy? You need to have a separate ISDN line for this, or do you set up a
spare 
MSN number to redirect to a cellphone, need a VoIP-GSM gateway, or what?

Any help would be appreciated.
