[Asterisk-Users] Sipura g729 call quality to PSTN

FYI - Seems the latest firmware in conjunction with changing the
packet size to 10ms improved the call quality to usable.  The Cisco
7960 is stell superior, but now at least the SPA-2100 is acceptable
(and with 2 working g729 channels including 3-way calling).
