Re: [Asterisk-Users] Difference between Snom 190 Elmeg 290?

Can't say anything about support, but my personal research told me that they are the same - no even more they are identical.

The way I heard it was that Snom had some trouble with the mechanical design of their earlier phones so bought the case design in from an existing ISDN phone maker. I guess that must be Elmeg. I guess the outer look tells you nothing about the hardware let alone the firmware.

Elmeg has been for a long time a manufacturer of ISDN Phones and small to medium PBXes in germany. Snom uses the chassis of the elmeg phones and puts their own electronics in them. So it seems very likely that the elmeg IP-Phones are in fact Snom phones. I do not wether the firmware can be changed across elmeg and snom, but if there are no artificial barriers in place that prevent this this could be possible. Torsten Thx!

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Difference between Snom 190 Elmeg 290?
There is a partnership between Elmeg and snom. We are using their plastic (in the snom 190/200/220), they are using our hard- and software (in the Elmeg 290). Elmeg have a long experience in making phones and we have experience in making hard- and software for VoIP (as long as it can be in the SIP-based industry). A good partnership! We call it snom inside...
