[asterisk-biz] SIP/IP over CDMA device?

[Wasim Baig]

I've been using the E61 for months now. SIP works great, so does truphone.
Someone was porting IAX to it as well, but no word so far. However, do note
that its WCDMA, not plain CDMA. EDGE works great on it as well, and the WIFI
is just rock solid.

Finally, a phone a techie can really love, and who can beat two fingered
full keypad typing at such a low price (i got mine for under $300 new).
