iPhone + Asterisk = True (sort of…)
I am one of those (very few) people who are not hooked on the iPhone. Don’t get me wrong, it looks like a very nice “toy”, and it has more features than a Swiss army knife. But like everything else it is far from perfect, and like almost everything from Apple it carries a rather high price. And you can’t use it as a VoIP client. Or???
In a recent blogpost called Jailbroken iPhone + SipPhone = Asterisk Goodness Corey jailbrakes his iPhone (twice), install a few applications and voila, the iPhone has a SIP client and is ready to work as an Asterisk extension. Cool! Maybe it’s time to reconsider. Or maybe not, it’s still possible to brick it. And I am not very fond of bricks, at least not in the Apple price range.
