How about http://www.mgamble.ca/oss/iphone_asterisk/ ?

Hah!  Cool, but quite ridiculous. :-)


I have a Linksys NSLU2 (Slug) at home running Asterisk (see http://www.nslu2-linux.org/ )

It's small, relatively cheap and runs Asterisk very well. You could slip it into a pocket.

I haven't tried yet but I have done a little reading and hope to connect the Slug to a mobile network when I get the time to play.

I know you said no bluetooth, Ed but if you're in North America and your cellular network is CDMA, AFAIK option 1 is the only one possible. These carriers generally won't allow devices on their networks unless they are purchased from the carrier.

If your cellular network is GSM then there are two approaches to try,

1. Slug, 4GB USB stick, USB Bluetooth dongle, dedicated bluetooth mobile phone + Asterisk 1.4 with a chan_mobile. Unfortunately, I doubt that chan_mobile is packaged for the slug (it's in 1.4 trunk) and you would have to build it. Cost ~$150 + phone + your time

2. Slug, 4GB USB stick + SIP-GSM gateway. Much easier to configure but it's a second box so less portable and more expensive than a BT dongle and an old phone. Probably more robust. Cost $250-$400

You could also substitute a Linksys WRT54GL ( http://openwrt.org/ ) for the Slug which would give you ethernet ports and wireless too.

Hope this gives you some ideas

regards,

Drew
