asterisk users - Feb 2007 - Attended Transfer with snom phones

I have setup an asterisk based phone system using snom-320 (SIP based)
phones.

I would like to change what seems to be the default procedure for an
attended call transfer.  Right now, the phone user places the call on hold,
calls the extension using a "extension" button on the phone, speaks
with the
call recipient , and presses transfer to transfer the held call.

The users would like to press transfer, call the extension using a
"extension" button on the phone, speak to the recipient, then hangup
to
complete the call.

Can you give me a suggestion as to how to do this.

Thank you,

Michael Boers

Reprogram the transfer button to be a hold button, and make sure
transfer-on-onhook (or is it transfer-on-hangup?) is turned on in the
phone.

I think that should work, I can check when I'm at work tomorrow.
