Steve,
Yes I work for Rhino that is no 
Secret. If you read the post I was responding to the thread not pimping my own products. I am not sure if your a Sangoma fanboy or employee since you are apparently offended by my response, however he wasn't asking to be sold to he was asking about specific products. So there it is yes I work for Rhino and I could have easily given one of our italian distributors but he didn't ask for that. It is not appropriate to troll the list and push your products unsolicited. If someone is looking for a recommendation for a card brand fine. If they need a solution like ADID or they need to accommodate funky CPC signals from their telco which Rhino does fine it is on subject. If someone asks should I use openvox to replace my digium you don't pimp your product because it wasn't asked for. If you want my honest opinion. I prefer people use Rhino products. I believe our products and support are superior but if you don't use our cards use Digium. If your reply is any indication on how Sandoma works I can honestly say go use a cheap clone before sangomaN they may not support you but at least they are open about being here just for the money.

James,

If you were replying to the original post about Openvox or specified 
that is what you were referring to, maybe I would not take issue but to 
reply to a suggesting to use Sangoma with what you did is absolutely 
misleading.  There is nothing "cheap" or "clone" about Sangoma's cards.

"asterisk.rhinoequipment.com" hmmmmm.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
