How much power does the home asterisk box need ?
I'm using Asus Eee Box (1012Ps) as Myth front ends in another project.

If you really want to go that route, you should also look at AstLinux and
install it on an HP thin client such as a 5720. No Hard Drive spinning, and
something like 30 watts. No fan either. All the asterisk files can be edited
either through SSH or a web interface.
I have a bunch out working

Much less than you would think. Any modern processor is more than enough.

I was thinking of using a PAP2T-NA for the ATA to handle the fax. It
appears to have a large number of fax specific settings. Can anyone comment
on using this device with a fax ?

How do the DECT systems integrate with the voice mail services on an

They don't. However, that's not an issue because Asterisk does.
Incoming, I have two PSTN lines, three SIP providers, and used to have
an IAX2 provider also. Asterisk integrates them

I am not sure I understand your reasoning for DISA or how it is

The only reason we use DISA is to spoof the caller id. The OP also
wanted to save costs, which is also possible (as someone already
confirmed). DISA

You can buy a card that accepts SIMs as FXO and FXS.
