The GXW-4104 and GXW-4108 are 4- and 8-port FXO devices, respectively. They support SIP, have dual 100baseT Ethernet ports and a "video port" (seems to be able to hook up a camera whose picture can be sent using H.264). In addition, they support G.711a/u, G.723.1, G.729a/b and GSM, in addition to T.38 for faxing. They also have some kind of echo cancellation. The user manual specifically includes configuration instructions for Asterisk.
The expected price is $330 for the 4-port and $560 for the 8-port. I expect units to be available in around 2 weeks. Regarding quality, the HandyTones usually worked pretty well, with the exception of the FXO port on some models which could be flakey in certain setups. In addition, Grandstream made an improvement with their GXP-2000 over the BudgeTone line. I am hoping this means that these multi-port FXO devices will be more reliable that the FXO port in the HandyTone devices.
