i need to choose a propriate cisco router from 2600 or 3600 series (money also does have matter)

the network situation and requirements:
full T1, there will be one webserver and one database server
there will be hosting but maximum of 10 sites, the main usage will be ASP - an online service, which will use intensively the database, and will have approximately 300 users maximum at first time
also a requirement is the the phones has to go through ip

please, tell me a suitable router from the above series
 
I think if you choose 2620 router will be suitable for your requirment , also you can check about that at cisco site
 
If your doing IP telephony, I'd use a 3640. It's 10x better than any 2600 and it has more functionality. You'd not have to upgrade the router even if you decide to upgrade the back-end LAN or the front-end WAN. It's more costly to do the 3640, but it would be worth it in the long run. Lots of admins only buy what they need to find out they have to replace it only a year later. That's poor capacity planning. Your best bet is to contact a Cisco Rep and have them come in and give you a layout of what your wanting to accomplish, and make sure you ask all your questions. You want a long term solution.
