I've used HP Thin Clients as embedded hosts for Asterisk. The T5700
models that I have are 1 GHz CPUs, more recent models should be able to
run a soft phone without too much trouble. They all have local USB
ports, making USB headsets as good solution.

Another alternative might be to used a soft phone implemented as a web
plug-in or activex object. Tim Panton of PhoneFromHere.com has a great
Java soft phone object that we use to make G.722 calls to the ZipDX
conference bridge for the VoIP Users Conference every week.
