[asterisk-biz] PBX Functionality for Less than the Price of a KeySystem (3Com Asterisk IP Telephony Appliance)

[Dean Collins]

Ouch is it me or does this seem on the high side for a wholesale bundle
(or is this retail and wholesale is 20-30% off dependant on volume).

 

(please keep in mind I'm consulting on a competing product so my
viewpoint may be biased, but for an appliance this seems a little high
end or is their something unique about the 3com solution I'm not
familiar with?)
