Chris,
I wrote a post that contains the information (files) you need for the
asterisk tftpboot directory to load a 7960 Sip 7.5 image from the server.
See this post

As far as obtaining the SIP 7.5 software, I see it on EBay all the time for
$12.00 buy it now.
If you follow my directions about what files to place in the tftpboot
directory, and modify your alternate boot server on the 7960, the phone will
load the sip software.
I personally learned by using SolarWinds TFTP server from my XP station so I
could see the file name requests as they were being transferred.
On a new Cisco phone, you would set the alternate tftp server to yes then
set the ip address of the alternate tftp server to the server with the
images to upload. If you need to unlock the phone it can be **# or cisco
based on the version loaded.
I also was interested in the SCCP driver. I was able to load the driver in
Asterisk (AND SEE IT) but could not get it to work. I did ask for a users
guide but there is not one available yet. So I think SIP will be the
easiest for you to use for you client proposal.
When time permits, I'll go back and look over the sccp driver and find my
mistakes.
It is not likely to find a legal SIP firmware for $12. Not the CD makes
it legal but the license from Cisco and this is a little more expensive.
Besides from this, Cisco's license agreement does not permit the license
to be resold, so to have a legal license, you need to get it from a
Cisco partner or at least authorized reseller.
Anyway, compared to the SCCP image, the SIP image is very bad.
Incomplete XML support, VERY slow, decreased sound quality...
Getting chan_sccp from Sergio to work is really easy. The distro
contains a well documented sample config and - as I wrote before - there
are lots of info in the chan-sccp-users mailing list archive.
I myself started with a SIPped 7960 but meanwhile, I run 3 7960s and 1
7905 without any problems.
Regards,
Stefan
