asterisk users - Jun 2005 - Best BootRom & SIP Code for Poly600?

Hey all,

Just getting started playing around with my Polycom 600.  According to
the wiki, it looks like it's recommended to run BootRom 2.6.1 and SIP
1.4.1.  Is that info still current, or is it safe to upgrade to 3.0.1
and 1.5.2?

I've been testing 1.5.2 for a few weeks now, and I'd have to say that  
I much prefer it over all previous versions.  Everything works well.   
The dialplan and administration are much easier, and the soft buttons  
on the phone are more logically organized (especially forwarding  
calls).  I'm still using bootrom version 2.6.1, though, in case I do  
ever need to go back to an earlier sip version.

I am still running BootRom 2.6.1 with Firmware 1.5.2 works great. I don't 
want to upgrade the rom due to not being able to down grade.

I'm using bootrom 2.6.1 with 1.5.2 for the same reason.  I would suggest the
upgrade to 1.5.2 for some non trivial enhancements such as multiple line/call
appearance.  Also the menu system is significantly improved.

Not sure if you got hte info but Bootrom 3.0.1, basically once you
install it, you can't go back.  So no going back to 2.6.1.

Now iwth the SIP Image, 1.5.2 seems a little bit better than 1.4.1. 
The menus have definitely changed for the better and are more
intuitive to use.  With SIP images, you can go from 1.5.2 to 1.4.1 so
there's no danger in trying out 1.5.2 and seeing hw you like it.

Hope this helps.  
I'm currently running BootRom2.6.1 with SIP1.5.2.  no problems so far.  

Regards,
