Sorry for not reading your Mail completely.

So with this thing and an FXO Card in your asterisk box, it should be possible to connect the two worlds, yes.

BUT.
I don't see a real reason to connect two probably ethernet-equipped boxes via FXO/FXS to transport VOIP-Traffic.
When the api is openly available and legally usable to connect phone lines to skype, there should be no problem with a "skype-api to iax2" or a "skype-api to sip" converter on the Windows box which then connects to your asterisk via IP.

But since the FXO/FXS solution seems to be instantly available, maybe the solution is the one to use right now.
