So you really aren't looking for a nice home phone system, as stated in your 
original post.

If you want to learn and have a test bed and you live alone, then set yourself 
up with a system that is based on Asterisk, and have at it.
Learn, play, fail then succeed, partially, then progress.
Keep in mind that you will probably spend more in hardware, and if you have 
other household members they will not be happy with you messing around with 
their telephones.If you have little or no experience in telephony you will have 
a more difficult time, and may create a system that is more difficult for many 
users. Asterisk doesn't yet do a really good job of recreating the user 
interface of many modern hybrid key/pbx systems

You need to start by reading "asterisk, the future of telephony" A rather 
presumptuous title, but a good reference none the less.
If you search the recent archives of this list, you will see the trials and 
failures of Asterisk and Google

If this is to be used by you while you attempt to make a living on your own, I 
would say to you that is most unwise.
Good luck and revisit when you have something up and working and have some 
serious questions

John Novack

Has anyone figured out how to minimize cell charges when on the road via
making calls via the home phone system ?

Does anyone have their cell phone forwarded to their home phone system
and have it do their messaging ?

Is anyone using Google Phone capabilities in conjunction with Asterisk ?

Thanks !

system.

Something that does voicemail well, integrates cell phones into the
house system, etc.

I know there are a lot of details that need to be discussed, but lets
leave it at that for now.

What is everyone doing ?

Thanks !
