At the risk of stating the obvious.... if you have a laptop not running MacOSX (ie perhaps running windows) download my asterisk live! cd ( http://www.automated.it/asterisk/ ), burn it and test it on your laptop and bung it in your laptop case along with your iaxy/sipura/whatever 
and errm... problem solved.. :D
