[SLUG] hardware for Asterisk server - Digium TDM400P, X100P FXO??

[Sonia Hamilton <sonia@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm doing some volunteer work with a non-profit (in Guatemala), and they
want me to set up a small Asterisk server (as they've been waiting 2
weeks for the PABX serviceman to come out and he charges $US75/hr -
expensive for a 3rd world country).

I just want to check with the Asterisk 'experts' that I'm on the right
track with hardware:

* they have 3 analog phone lines, which would therefore require a PCI
card with 3 FXO modules?

* at the high end, I've recommended a "Digium Wildcard TDM400P" with 4 x
FXO's ($US421) - does this sound right?

* at the low end, I've recommended a "X100P FXO PCI" ($US29.95) - does
this sound right?

Comments about the above hardware, or recommendations for cheaper/better
hardware?

I'm aware of the goodness of "echo cancellation", "a decent server" and
an FXS module for connecting an analog handset for emergencies - I think
it's going to be a process of showing them what Asterisk can do, then
getting money for a proper server/addins/cards/etc.
