PBXes is far more limited than Asterisks, but there is a distinct advantage (IMHO) to a hosted solution. It doesn't gobble your home bandwith, eliminates QOS issues, and is particularly advantageous if the machine is running in an empty nest or when you would need to bring in extra network capacity to handle the same. (It is also particularly helpful when your state run ISP is known with screwing with VOIP).

looks good the trixbox alternative. I read somewhere they are also offering this on servers in future like you said. The only thing I could read was an Atlanta datacenter.

The advantage of pbxes is that they have several datacenters around the world and if you use the service in the USA you can use the USA server in Europe the German of French server and this helps to connect faster. When in europe and you have to connect to a USA server you could end up having a too high delay (in ms) in the connection.

PBXES is indeed limited but on the other hand it's easier to configure than an asterisk system. Also I have seen some asterisk sever but they charge $35 per month comparred to the euro 10 / usd 15 per month for pbxes.

I think there is a market for all these products. True experts would like an asterisk as they can finetune this really to their need. On the other hand pbxes offer a easy solution which many users can use and also important you can start to play around using their free solution.
