asterisk users - Apr 2006 - How to terminate ringing call before it is answered?

Is there a way to terminate a ringing call before it is answered?

I am speaking of prepaid card application in which you want to make another
call, because the current number it is not being answered, and you don't
want
to hangup before dialling another number.

You mean like pressing "*" to exit and get dropped back into the IVR
to
make another call?

It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level, I'm
really quite busy.

One way would be to use a queue to initiate the call and use the
context defined in the queue as where to drop the call. I'm however
not sure if the context setting in queues work when ring is used as an
option in the app_queue. Also you would have to make sure that the
member in the queue is Local/nubertodial@context for accurate billing
reasons, and I'm not sure how you could change somthing like this on
the fly.
