[asterisk-users] Asterisk and cell phones

[Olivier]

Hello,

PBX vendors used to sell software extensions providing enterprise services
to cell phones.

Main features were :
- 4 digit dialing or directory access,
- call forwarding,
- unified messaging.

Now that WiFi and dual mode cell phones get more popular, these Java-based
software should be more successful on the market as bandwidth costs
decrease.

My question are :
1. How Asterisk would compare on cell phone integration with PBX or IPBX
vendors ?
2. Is there now a way to enhance high end cell phones with third party
software to gain access to Asterisk features ?
3. More specifically, has anyone tested Nokia EXX dialing capabilities ?
Would it be easy to customise some callback features  with such phones
For example :
you dial a number and hit a home-made Callback key : your phone then dials a
callback server number instead, hangs up, waits for this callback server to
call and lastly replies the real number you would like to be connected with
(this could be useful when receiving charges are (much) cheaper than
emitting charges).

Best regards
