We're still waiting for a SIP-enabled 7970...
The newer model phones (7941g/ge, 7961g) are sccp-only. Seems a step

why?

If cisco really is moving towards SIP as claimed earlier, then releasing new phones which are sccp-only is a step backwards from that goal.

If cisco really is moving towards SIP as claimed earlier, then cisco should release SIP images for 7970, as they did with 7960 and 7940.

I had my phones running on SIP, got chan-sccp and started
experimenting with it.
All my phones are running SCCP now. The phones respond
faster, you have more options etc.
Of course it would be nice if they offer SIP so people have
a choice, but I really think the chan_sccp is the way to
have these phones work.

This only means sccp is currently better for cisco phones, it doesn't mean sccp is a better protocol.

sccp and asterisk has some err.. real annoying bugs at the moment, where ciscos running SIP don't have these problems.

Given a choice I'd run SIP, if only to have the phones able to talk to each other and gateways if the PBX dies for any reason. sccp can't do that -- if you lose the PBX you totally lose all functionality on all your sccp phones.
