FWIW, my bits arrived early. I spent the evening doing the config. Pretty successful considering I've never even touched anything with VOIP until this week
Using the HT-503 and 3CXPhone softphone, I was able to make an accept calls. (If anyone else gets one, the HandyTone 503 setup is basically the same as the HT-488.)
I was also able to make a call using the Linksys WIP300 (btw, that is the cheapest feeling phone I've ever had in my hands, and the battery cover is loose enough to slide off in normal use. this one may be going back. TBD)
I have one issue with caller ID (shows up as the extension assigned to the gateway rather than the number of the caller), and the PSTN-side of the calls is really low volume-wise, but I'll look into that Thursday/Friday. I also haven't done any stress testing. I did have a call get "stuck" (line wasn't in use according to the gateway or my ear-test, but 3cx insisted that it was) and require restarting the 3cx service, but I have no idea what caused that.
I have an email in to GrandStream about the latest firmware as well as the ineffectualness of the gain settings in the 503.
The 3cx site (or some router between me and the 3cx site) was down most of tonight, so I'll check the forums for any tips later.
