Yeah but notice from the article, he had to forgo voicemail. 
Personally having run asterisk before, I would not put it on a WRT
because of the lack of storage, processor, and memory.  The only
reason to do it, is the geek factor of having done it.

Personally I'd but my time into the "Dollhouse" wifi helmet cam :)
