	Exactly.  I have people doing at least ~30 calls in that manner. 
That's just glorified packet forwarding (okay not really, but I can't 
think of anything better).

	I know that I keep using this as an excuse, but with Asterisk there are 
just too many variables to be able to answer questions like "How many 
calls x x?"

	Codecs, protocols, trunking, re-invites, echo can., etc, make it very 
difficult to come up with numbers.  I want to do an "astertest" on this 
hardware, but have just not had enough time...
