I use bluetooth for presence detection in exactly this manner. Sadly, I'm stuck in Linux because I also use a TDM400P in the asterisk server. I think the Mac Mini would be a great solution for this sort of feature. http://slacker.com/~nugget/asterisk6.php describes what I built. In my experiences, the 30 foot range claimed for bluetooth is extremely conservative. I can "see" my cell phone from anywhere in my house. -- David McNett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://slacker.com/~nugget/ _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
