Which is a completely and utterly wrong answer to users complaining about usability. If they want to transfer, they do not want to park, write down a number, dial the other party, etcetera. Just flash and dial, and if the other party doesn't respond flash again to retrieve the call on hold. You might think it's dumb, and call parking is way more cool, but it happens to be the way that almost every phone system in the world works, and if you don't want to screw up one thing with phone systems, it's the user interface. Hold-and-transfer is about the most sophisticated feature users can handle on the average phone system, and * even puts up a barrier here... -- Cees de Groot http://www.tric.nl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> tric, the new way helpdesk/ticketing software, VoIP/CTI, web applications, custom development _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
