My most recent install was in Springfield MO, 50 Zap phones, 25 SIP, 2 
T1's, 12 POTS run through a Rhino Modular Channel Bank. We are running 
Asterisk 1.4.16, recording all phone calls. Minor issues with dropped 
calls (being worked on with LD provider) and occasional static, due to 
using EM Wink signalling (provider screwed up and did not provision PRI)..

Stay with PRI T's and you should be fine.
