There may be SIP firmware for ‘traditional’ i.e. non-SPA Cisco phones 78xx, 79xx phones, but little or mostly no documentation for support on third party PBXs, usually not a lot of feature parity, and some odd issues like problems with NTP, completely different screens, etc. It becomes very apparent in migrating users from SCCP to SIP.
Even the dual stack SPA phones exhibit some significant changes between protocols, though they do support SIP well and are documented much better.

Unlike cisco Polycom were designed for SIP. Although the Sound Point range is not appealing to the eye the performance has been solid. The models IP550 and IP650 are the favorites. In the VVX range 500 and 600 are still maturing. Broadsoft features are much easier to deploy on Polycom phones. Provisioning is seamless if you are using Broadsoft DMS as well. I gave up testing Yealink in 2011 because of their poor support.

I really like the VVX 500 and 600, the 400 is OK, the 300 not so much. I would love to develop some content or an app to take advantage of the touchscreen displays on the 500 and 600.
