So, if I switch to mISDN, I'll need to have kernel 2.6.8 or better, which
means I'll have to reinstall, as I am using A at H, which currently uses a
2.4 kernel.

I have a few experience questions:
1) Does it support the possibility to listen in (similar to zapbarge?) and
record calls?
2) How is the synching between the 2 cards? (ZapHFC + Florz allows for the
NT mode card(s) to be slave(s) of the TE mode card(s) to ensure the
buffers run in sync.)

TIA!
