Michael,
I've never personally used the SPA8000, but I do have a lot of experience
with the SPA3102 (one FXO/one FXS) ATA. I like it. Fairly inexpensive, and
works very well. I've used it with voice and faxing, and overall have had
almost no issues. Highly configurable as well, unlike the Grandstream ATAs.
