The iPhone Wait

Well, I ordered an iPhone from Apple on the release date of June 29th. A little over 2 weeks later I now have one in my hands. They shipped it from China. So I quickly unbox it (the material is all over the floor) and connect it to iTunes. iTunes says "please wait up to 6 minutes for activation". I'm at 67 minutes right now. I'm tempted to use DVD Jon's Activation kit, but I worry that will cause a problem once AT&T gets around to properly activating my phone. Eh, we shall see. 68 minutes now.

Asterisk with CRM Support

I'm a big fan of VoIP technologies and also these AJAX systems. So what I did was use a great open source product called Asterisk (it's a PBX system) to create an AJAX CRM database with a direct tie-in for auto-dialing. I'm testing this with a mortgage company that wants a system to auto-dial prospects and bring up their information upon someone answering. It's been a great few week learning experience but I'm finally close enough to being done that I'm happy with it. If anyone cares about learning about this or looking at my code, write me.
