There are a number of choices - either a card or an external box.

I bought a Sipuura 3000 (AUD~$200) which is an FXS/FXO device.  It is
Austel approved and can work with Asterisk (though I just got it a few
days ago, so I haven't set it up yet).

PSTN cards (from Voicetronix or Digium) are very expensive I've found.

Cheers,
Anand
