I don't know. Since you can not buy a netstick or cellphone supported  
by the asterisk drivers anymore and must depend upon current  
production ones to work in compatibility mode, or just be the same old  
ones in new cases and different numbers, it's almost impossible to tell.

Netsticks that look like they would work run from 200 to 500 NIS here  
and around $50 (some plus postage, some included) on eBay.

I am loathe to do it, because I can't afford to buy these things and  
not use them. I'm not even sure I can afford to buy them AND use  
them. :-(
