I would suggest contacting a dealer until you find one who will sell you a maintenance contract for the phone. Last I checked, over a year ago, they were somewhere around $10-$20. Once you have a contract you may register online and download all the software you need. However to use legally you would have the pay the ~$50 license fee for SIP.

That seems to be what the various documents I've stumbled across seem to
indicate. Maybe it's too late at night and my brain is shot, but Cisco's
documentation on the upgrade path seems a little confusing... Would you
mind giving me a brief summary of the upgrade path to the latest firmware if
you know it, starting from P003AM30?


Thanks again!

Just a note that you will need to perform quite a few incremental
upgrades to get to a current firmware version.  So if you do get
someone who will sell you the firmware, make sure you get the all of
them.

I got a new old stock Cisco 7960 from eBay and the warranty expired bay in
2001 according to Cisco (I didn't even know they had VoIP in 2001 ;-) ).
I
spoke with a wonderfully rude gentleman at Cisco who told me there was
nothing that could be done to get SIP firmware for the device, and would
not
even entertain the possibility of purchasing said FW from Cisco.  He
suggested I call a local reseller, and the single one I called was not
interested in helping me either with my "unsupported hardware."



I'm using the 7960 to experiment with *, and was wondering if there are
alternative means to finding the firmware, or if the "out of the box" SCCP
firmware (I have version P003AM30) will work with *. I'm willing to pay
any
"official resellers" a fair price for the F/W, but the attitude I received
from Cisco and the one reseller I contacted have me thinking this is a
waste
of time.



I'm using [EMAIL PROTECTED] and can seem to find any SCCP info, and don't want
to delve too deeply into this experiment if the phone is not going to work
reliably.




Thanks for any help or pointers in the right direction.
