Elliott,

I think it's publicly available.  Aastra promotes this as a powerful
feature of their phones, I assume Polycom has to do the same.

I found this link on the Polycom site.  There's a reference to sample
applications.  I think that's where I would start.  I looked at one of
the docs and this looks like it's a bit more involved than the Aastra
approach.  They seem to actually deploy java applets to the phone
which are then consumed by the Microbrowser.  That seems a bit heavy
to me but I only looked at it for 30 seconds.

Take a look, it might do what you want.

Good luck,
Dave
