Using OBi110 to bridge Ooma and landline to connect the two
jimates:
Every Obi box and app has a Obion 9 digit number. From the Obi device/app you just dial the 9 digit number for the other Obi device/app you want to connect to.
You don't have to go through the AA to do what you want to do. You can use the AA along with speed dial but a recent firware update has given us the ability to dial direct through another Obi without haveing to go through the AA.

Thank you very much for your help here! Really appreciate it! Now as soon as the boxes come back in stock, i am going to be able to test this out personally.

So i received my second box finally. Thank you Obi for keeping the supply alive and adding the extra sticker on top - helps simplify things a little more.
Two Questions:
Scenario: OBi box2 is here in the US. OBi box1 is in an international country.
1) can i have one box1 always connect to box2 automatically to make just outgoing calls? At the same time any calls made to box1 should give me the aa so that i can dial out.
2) I am not able to directly dial out using "<speed dial number>*1<phone number>". It gives me a busy signal. Here is an example of how i am trying to dial out 2*12121234567. My setup is that i have both the OBi boxes on the same network and also belong to the same account. I am trying to dial the above number from box2 which is connected to the same network as box1. Box1 has the GV and the Ooma setup on it.
Thank you for your help in advance.

dialing anything other than another obi endpoint's 9 digit number will result in the busy signal. I think with both obi's in the same account they are already in the circle of trust so dialing from one to the other should get the auto attendant.
In order to call into Obi 1 and get the AA your number will have to be in the circle of trust.
As far as direct dialing direct through Obi 2 from Obi 1, maybe possible but likely will require some digit map changes.

Thank you for the quick reply.
1) So there is no way to have one OBi box always connect to another automatically or use another one as a voice Gateway - correct?
2) As far as my second question goes, i am under the impression that you can directly dial out without going through the AA. I came to this conclusion based on this post: http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=138.0
Am i looking at this all wrong?
thanks,
Ajay
