Looks like it's rs232, so I suspect not :)

However if the AMD Geode 500MHz processor is any good, and I'd expect it 
to be better than the old 500MHz Via processor I use as my 
test/development system then you'll be able to run well over a dozen 
concurrent calls (not transoding) without any issues..

Hm. $300 in the US and the UK disty is selling them for just short of 
£240, so they can go stuff themselves, low-power or not. (I buy 1GHz 
systems with 1GB of RAM, running at 15W for half that. No drive though)
