I have a pingtel hardphone, and while it's nice, I suspect that asterisk will kick butt over pingtel's ambitions. An example is, sipfoundry does not have the support or ease of use as asterisk. I suspect they are in it for the enterprise business model, which is good, but all the nice features come from us 'VOIP Entreprenuers', who see possibility and invent it's use. My pingtel phone feels like a dot.com startup/failure. A phone which cost around 700 or so, and is not even half as good as a cisco 7960 or polycom ip700.
Pingtel was probably not making the money they wanted with their gateway services, and their website was never really up to par. The surprise is, that they are still around at all after selling their hardphone division. Just my 2 cents...
