According to Linksys, Linksysone is a front end hosted solution designed
to support service providers. It needs Cisco back-end equipment
(service nodes) at the providers' costing between USD260k and over 500k
each.
Contrary to what has been published in media, we were told by Linksys
that this product runs Cisco proprietary protocol, not SIP.
Currently, the product is undergoing test in Australia and a blueprint
will be ready mid 2006 before they will decide if/when to launch worldwide.
Would be interested to hear other feedback anyone else may have received
from Linksys contacts.

T1? Not a problem
Since this is a "hosted solution" companies using Linksysone are required to
use one of the authorized Hosted Service Providers--MCI airBand, or
NeoNova...
We looked in to reselling this but it seems that linksys wants resellers to
commit to the demo kit (+$1000) before announcing what it will cost
end-user's for the managed service. Not a huge cap expense but talk about
putting the cart before the horse!
Just my 2 pennies...

This looks like a nice unit. To bad it does not have a T1/E1 Interface
and/or a few more analog ports.
