We switched from a KX-T336 to a Cortelco Millennium, so we are feeding
it to a Millennium now, and are quite happy with asterisk, but it all
depends on what you want to do with it.

We wrote our own voicemail application using asterisk as the base and
that has worked well.  The Voicemail app that comes with asterisk is
coming along, but still quite basic.

We also use asterisk as a basic switch.  Our PRIs from the telco come
in to asterisk first, and from there we can redirect calls to other
asterisk boxes or to our PBX.  This works great in most cases.  You can
do all sorts of custom routing, lookups, and such, that you can't do
with a closed PBX.

Some people are using asterisk as a PBX; in fact that's what they bill
it as, but in my opinion it's not quite ready to serve the phones on
your desk, as too many features that you expect on a PBX are missing.

We're using 800 MHz AMD Athlon boxes for up to 4 spans.  On our
machines with more, we're using newer dual AMD Athlon 1.8 GHz boxes.
We have one such box with 12 spans, but it starts to have problems when
more than 200 channels are active.
