phonegnome buzz

it seems that the launch of phonegnome generated quite a stir all over the blogosphere. most of them, including the manufacturer (or should i say service provider), claim that it's a custom built appliance while it really is an off-the-shelf sipura SPA-3000 with a nice web based hosted management interface and some added services. the amped mind seems to be the only one with a correct analysis. i'm not saying it isn't clever, i'm just saying it's not a new product, but a new service which can easily be cloned with readily available open source software and some scripting magic.
