The voicemail indicator works well (on the 500) I have mine working. The only thing is you cant use [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the sip.conf file. You can only use ### for the voicemail indicated. I also have it setup to use CID for all internal calls and this is working well for me so far. I am not using dual sip entries and have not had any issues with only 1 side hearing things. One other item of note is that with this phone I can not use callprogress=yes if I do this I can hear the called party but I can not speak.

Hi all, I'm researching IP phones for a new office setup. We will need 30 phones. I have read the wiki and the polycom site for the phones, but I still had some questions about real world experience with these phones. -According to the documentation, the 500 series ( and 600, according to a polycom rep ) have built in hubs. Has anybody noticed performance issues in this setup, when running a computer off of the built in second port? -The 500 series has an indicator light, which is implied to work as a voice mail indicator. Is this true? What extra setup is needed? Or do I just need to add `mailbox` to the sip config entry and be done with it? -Do these phones still have issues where one side hears the conversation while the other hears nothing or rining? Do they still need special sip file entries ( 2 per phone )? I apprecaite any and all note/advise/rants/raves/information that the asterisk crowd can volunteer about this phone. Thank you.
