[SGVLUG] asterisk with freePBX

[Don Saxton]

yes I am using the fxo to answer the pots phone. I have been using 
vgetty to email me fax and voice messages, but I want to try to pass 
calls to where ever i am, so I will look a little more connected even 
while on the boat.

If there were a cheap enough fxs, I have a nice wireless phone (not wifi)

Found a softphone for window mobile that sounds interesting.

Biggest problem now is to get softphone on lan to work.

The phone language is like reading somthing from a 100 years ago.
