Hi Eugene, Yes it's that good. All the functionality you posted is possible.
Regarding your international calls, nothing more is required than two asterisk servers (one at each location) and a broadband connection - cards are only used to connect into pstn or isdn. Why don't you start with a preformatted iso like trixbox or druid and then jump into coding your own once you know what you are doing.
