It certainly is cheap. However, it is my understanding that their card does not support the ability to ring the phone (i don't know this for a fact though). If so, this would disqualify it from being a general purpose FXS interface. > I know they have an API, because both Deltrathree and Net2Phone have > their software setup to take full advantage of the box's features. > > Does Digium plan on offering the S100U as an individual project?

However, we don't encourage it because of the problems that people often have with USB. The more attractive option will likely be our PCI station card which (with a single port) will have a projected $125 price tag (additional ports will be $60/port when purchased at the same time, up to a total of four FXS interfaces on the PCI card for $305 total). This certainly isn't as cheap as the $40 Actiontec interface, but it will be fully supported by Digium, and of course proceeds will support further development of Asterisk. The station card is currently in production and is expected in March. Greg ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) can be your contact if you're interested in them. I believe he is keeping a list of people to inform when they come in from manufacturing.
