Thanks for the posts thus far!  In all honesty I'm looking for a  
complete "in house" solution.  I don't mind spending up to $500-600 on  
equipment if necessary.  I just want to know that when I'm done there  
are no residual costs, etc.  Is Asterisk capable of this kind of setup/ 
management?  As for labor, I'm willing to donate as much as is  
necessary.

Thanks again,

Michael
