Well the gxp-2000 has BLF, the polycom 501 does not correct? I had an astra 480i and it was prety bad, but I was going to test the 9133i for an inexpensive phone to compete with the gxp2000. The gxp2000 is not bad though, the new firmware helps a lot, but once they work out the echo bugs fully and the various minor stuff it will be a good sub $100 phone. I am yet to find a phone under $300 that's perfect... The snom 360 is nice, but I have lots of problems with those too. I havent tried any polycom's though and starting to think they might be some of th ebest...

Long term I believe any of the Aastra phones are a MUCH better. why bother with an aastra 9133i when you can have a polycom 501. better phone, same price. -Dan _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users This E-mail, including any attachments, may be intended solely for the personal and confidential use of the sender and recipient(s) named above.
