Seriously, though. It's not a scam, it's their business model (which is shared by many many companies). The software license is separate from the hardware. Always has been. You probably should have known that before buying the phone, and a little extra research on this list and the Wiki would have told you that.
Just pay the $7 or $10 for the firmware license already, sheesh.

I just bought a couple of these Cisco 7970G phones and it seems that they require a SIP image binary file to load when the phone boots and this file updates the firmware of the phone to run in SIP mode. The only problem is that Cisco seems to want to profit from the phone sales and then block you from using the phone by not allowing downloads of the binary files. What a scam!! Has anyone been successful in getting the SIP binary firmware update file? If not how did you get your phone working?
Thanks!!
