[asterisk-users] Switch recommendation?

This will be my first major asterisk experiment and I'm trying to
choose a PoE switch for 15-24 phones. I was going to spend $400 on
this:

but then I see this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/WS-C3524-PWR-XL-EN-Cisco-3524-24-FE-Switch-W-PoE-VoIP_W0QQitemZ370043264927QQihZ024QQcategoryZ51268QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

and I'm thinking, hey, thats a lot cheaper and it is PoE. Will the
Cisco IP phone's proprietary wizardry be a problem for my flock on
Linksys IP phones? Because as long as it can do vlan qos and poe I
think I can scrape by for half the price, right?

Thanks for reading!
