out there is a free for educational and no commercial G729 lib for asterisk
you can use it to test in a non-comercial system.
the digium lib is much better. if you have more than 30~60 phones
transcoding inst a very good idea.
i made my self a test on a core 2 duo 64 bits 2GB of ram a test transcoding
more than 90 calls the sound quality was BAD not poor BAD.

the digium transcoder is GREATE 0 cpu was gone for transcoding.

keep this in mind.
