Re: May 15th Meeting Announcement


Doug - Happy Birthday

I've been using the NSLU2 for a couple of years now and and you can't beat
the price/performance plus it has a great Wiki, Yahoo group and IRC
channel.

I'm hoping to get enough info from Lee's talk to be able to set up Asterisk
but my biggest problem is time.  See everyone at the meeting.

I would be interested in seeing the NSLU2 work.   I have a couple Sipura
SPA-841 phones
but haven't used the SPA-3000   I would think there is some overlap in
setup, however.
I found this guide that may help:
http://www.jmgtechnology.com.au/spa_3000_guide.pdf

I run Asterisk on a µATX board in a Netvista case ( slightly larger than
a phone book )
with an IDE drive, no CD, floppy, or monitor,  so it is pretty low power
as well.  The
power supply is only rated 60W.

My repeat Asterisk talk is at UNISYS in Malvern on 5/18
