[General] VoIP For Home Usage

[Majed B.]

Bashar,
Those dudes are trying to sell their stuff with the original prices!!! Meh!

I'm trying to convince the family to buy used/refurbished phones but
they don't want. They had this disgusted look on their faces. I just
don't get them :/

You're lucky they let you get 10 phones! They usually charge you 5%
(trade tax) if you have 3 or more!

I don't want a high-end phone. I asked for the most basic and Cisco
being available in Kuwait, I thought it would save me some trouble.
Also, I get to test one before buying it, to make sure it works with
my PBX!

Are you using them with the SIP firmware or with the SCCP one?

Ahmad,
testdisk doesn't recover files; it fixes and recovers the old
filesystem. This is a better approach rather than recovering the files
one by one...
