Submission + - Freest Phone Calls Ever?
drowe67 writes: "Li Yuqian (Beijing, China) and I (Adelaide, South Australia) just made the first VOIP call using the IP04 Open Hardware IP-PBX. Unlike any other PBX projects the IP04 hardware is free (as in speech). Anyone is welcome to copy, modify, manufacture and hack the design. The hardware was designed using open source gEDA CAD software, and it even runs uClinux and Asterisk. Could these be the freest phone calls ever? Even the inventor of the telephone Alexander Graham Bell was wrapped up in 19th century patent wars over his hardware!"
