Thanks for the responses, everyone.
One problem a colleague and I discussed moments ago is the system may preform "better" if we're using a Layer 3 switch. Which I would like anyway, but isn't very cost effective for an office with 10 phones and 5 workstations. A L3 switch would be almost half, if not more, the total cost of the project build. I guess it also depends on the amount of traffic and calls made from the office. But, other than the 4 sales people, I don't imagine the office having a high volume of traffic in and out. It is a small publishing house not a call center or support company. The most they use the phone system for, other than selling ads, is talking to each other and calling writers.
Cheers,

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience to give me dealing with Cisco 7902G and 7905G IP phones and getting them to work on a lan with Asterisk when *not* using other Cisco hardware?
The sales guy is just trying to sell you more Cisco hardware. I have 7910s, 7940s and 7960s at my house all running just fine on a Linksys 24-port fast ethernet switch with zero problems.
