[Asterisk-Users] fax possibilities

I am trying to set up a linux based faxing solution for a client, and
have found that the modem they have (ancient dataplex external unit)
just isn't up to the job. It talks to some remote fax machines but not
others.

A new external modem ranges from AUD$75 to AUD$400, which got me
thinking of other possibilities...

#1 FXO PCI card (more expensive for 1 port, probably cheaper for 2+)
#2 Sipura SPA3000
#3 Grandstream ATA488

I assume there will be no problem getting #1 working as a fax modem, but
what about #2 and #3? Has anyone done this before? Some brief googling
shows that it is possible, but not that it has been done...
