You do realise soft sip phone (means Software SIP phone). ie. you dont need hardware but merely a software SIP phone to make calls with a SIP provider. Sipura 3000 is a hardware device that allows you to hook up a normal phone to be used as a hardware SIP phone. I believe the Sipura has 2 such ports, and then has another port so that it can hook upto your existing phone line. Of course it also has a LAN port. Then you can have dial plans that tells the 2 handsets connected on how to dial. Do I dial out the telstra line or via the SIP providers over ethernet link to make certain calls. You dont need Asterisk, but merely a SIP provider, however. If you do have Asterisk, your asterisk box can use the Sipura 3000 and its connected phones as extensions and what not. Hope that gives you a bit of background. Someone can expand further I am sure. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
