That's great if you're good enough/have the time to make that happen. But when I have issues and call/pay Digium and don't get timely or meaningful answers, it's doesn't make for a good business decision to continue using it for that purpose when I can toss in a Nextone or Sansay and have it "just work". All the time. No babysitting. Full professional and timely problem resolution from the vendor, etc, etc, etc. Don't even get me started on Digium not being able to get TC400Bs to properly negotiate g.723.1 5.3k when a client requests 6.3k first (thank god for Cantata).
I guess it all comes down to whether you want things to just work and be able to have tier 1/2 support capable of actually doing anything meaningful, or if you want to have the engineering level people forced to do all the work. From my standpoint, the smart business decision is quite clear.
But, as I said, Asterisk is still driving the feature servers, and works well for it. As mentioned by someone else previously in the thread, it makes a great endpoint.
If you're having good success with it, that's fantastic. I would hope that you contribute back to the list how you set things up to make this a possibility.
