I have done it with the BCM50R3, but I had to cheat a little. I used a cheap embedded Asterisk box (custom firmware for a Linksys WRT54GL) to act as sort of a gateway.
Basically my SIP commercial trunk provider had things configured in such a way the BCM couldn't correctly authenticate. The Asterisk box would connect to the provider using the provided configuration and then it is set to "trust" the BCM50. Any calls the Asterisk box receives it passes back to the BCM50. Likewise, if the BCM50 places an outbound call to the SIP trunk, Asterisk cleans up the CallerID and passes the call to the provider.
It is a bit "hack-ish" but has been working flawlessly for almost a year.
