asterisk users - May 2003 - Cisco 7960 SIP speed dial

I'm having great success using Cisco 7960s with Asterisk but one Cisco
7960 specific function that's puzzling me is programming the 'line
buttons' (6 buttons on the upper right side of the phone) for speed dial.
I'm
not using any Cisco applications like Call
Manager and the phones are SIP.  *All* of the documentation I've found
over the last several days continues to refer to Cisco Call Manager
specific configuration.  Has anyone had any success configuring the
buttons for this purpose, in these condidtions?

Thanks,

Go into the SIP Configuration menu and tweak each line setting as you wish.

Yes and no.  When configured as a skinny phone, the buttons can
be either an extension, or a programmable speed-dial.

I haven't seen anything in the Cisco SIP firmware documentation
that lists the ability to add speed dials, and looking at the
provided configuration samples, it is likely not an available
feature even on the latest firmware. (4-04-00).

Does Asterisk support PLAR configurations?  If so each button
could be assigned a login in a different context, with that 
context set to dial the desired number (yes, hackish).

Those are not speed dial buttons. Those are line/account buttons. The
7960 is supposed to be like a 6 line telephone, and you are selecting
which line to dial out on.
