1841 - Am I missing something ?

Ok I've currently got a 1760 (amongst others) in my rack at home and I'm toying around with getting an ISR, a friend of mine has suggested a 1841(I was looking at the 2800 pricy i know) as a colleague of his (dont ya love chinese whispers) used one for his VP studies.
Now I'm unable to find and ios suitable for the 1841 that will allow me to run voip on these.

So what am I missing ?? Does the 1841 lends itself to voip?
if I say something that can be taken one of two ways and one of them offends, I usually mean the other one :-)

    I don't think any of the 1800s do voice.

    The 1841 doesn't support VICs, no DSP Slots, and Multi-Flex Trunks are supported only in data mode -- so NO to voice.

    But it will route your VoIP packets through it's little corner of the network like a good little router. :D

    i agree the 2800 does support voice, 1841 supports qos for voip and all that but not all that you would need to set up cme and stuff

    Hi,

    I'm fairly sure the only one of the 1800 series that fully supports voice is the 1861, seems to be an obscure model, never seen one on eBay. From what I've read it seems to be a UC520 but with SRST capabilities.

    Cheers,
    Dave

    FWIW, a cheapish option for voice study is the 3725 or 3745. They can handle a ton of phones too.
