Hi,
this might sound pretty stupid, but i've tested some dozen from different vendors, and all of them just support g711.
Judging from the audio-quality, at least the cheaper ones are more-or-less a simple phone with an fxo-style interface that re-digitizes the audio, what i'm looking for is a device that transparently sends the gsm-encoded audio via rtp to asterisk.
anyone?

Why do you want GSM?

there is a potential problem with this. GSM6.10 is all asterisk does,
there is the GSM-AMR (adaptive multirate, as opposed to the fixed rate
6.10 does) is patented and afaik there is no patent license or codec to
do the AMR parts. as a result if it just did passthrough it would have
to specifically not support AMR, and getting that info may be somewhat
difficult as marketing monkeys wouldnt understand what you are asking -
but it would be osmething to look for if you got one.

presumably because its a GSM gateway, and he wants the raw data from the
radio board so that the device itself doesnt transcode, and he can then
only transcode 1 time instead of potentially gsm->g.711->g.729 which
will cause some additional audio distortions vs gsm->g.729 (in both I
omitted the signed linear stages thinking its implied but someone
somewhere will say something if I dont mention it).
