Re: [asterisk-biz] PBX Functionality for Less than the Price of a KeySystem (3Com Asterisk IP Telephony Appliance)

That is what I would expect to pay for a real server with same day
support (not an appliance) that can handle hundreds of calls and
extensions. Add more for T1 or whatever.

Then without running ABE, I can upsell all kinds of integration (even
things the customer never thought of) and be a true VAR, not just a
guy that sells a box.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
