The BLF (Busy Light Field) part of the DSS buttons are not active in the 
latest firmware.

The microphone part of the speaker phone needs some work, possibly just 
software (too low volume and too much echo). 

The headset jack in the back is a non-standard 3.5mm phono jack and not
one of the usual 2.5mm phono or modular 4c4p jacks nearly all headsets 
use. You will either have to get an adapter made or connect the headset in 
line with the handset via a headset switch. Pity.

The Called Numbers and Received Calls functions are awkward to use. I did 
not find a "Missed Calls" function.

Other than these misfeatures the phone works well. Multiple lines, 
attended transfer etc.

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of building Asterisk for our new office and 
have hit a snag.  We need two internal Analog lines for a modem and fax 
machine.  Am I right in thinking I can use two ATA's, one on each piece of 
equipment which will then talk to Asterisk and route via our ISDN30?

If the above is corrent could you recommend a good model?

Thanks in advance.


Phil.
