We've gone with a mixture of POTS lines for a few faxes and ATAs for 
others but have found also found the ATAs less than ideal. the POTS 
lines double up as emergency telephone points so we'll probably stick 
with this model for now.

Has anyone tried any other non-cisco ATAs such as the small Patton 
smartnodes? They sound better on paper since they support T.38 fax 
over ip while not being a full size 24 port FXS gateway/router but 
some real world experience of using these for FAX would be useful.
