I'd do it myself but I'm kind of out of the area.

You might contact an outfit called NetVersant.  They do work for us running 
_our_ Mitel PBX, and I'm sure they could help, but money might be an issue.

At extremely low budgets, xDSL is your friend.  Talk to meer.net about 
SDSL.  So is Centrex, for small numbers of stations (under 50).  Talk to 
any Pac*Bell^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HSBC rep about that, and don't bother feeding 
your PBX for a while; a voice T1 is a big chunk of money compared to a 
handful of Centrex lines.
