asterisk users - Jul 2003 - Best Analog sets for use w/*

Hi All,
	I am considering testing out some analog sets with * for a customer and
thought I would ask what analog phones are in use?  The customer would
require the usual business functionality ie hold, conference calling, and
preferably a soft key to vm and line apearances(correct terminology?) in
order for secretary to see if their boss is on the phone before transferring
a call, etc.  I would appreciate haering any of your experiences.

Sincerely,
Andy Hester

these are analog phones designed for pc-pbx's, that have a rj-45 cable
pins 1-8 are looped as a system bus to allow you to intercom, & see which
sets are in use... the reception phone  SE310 has more soft keys & larger
display
they all have the ability to program the soft keys
