For some reason I thought I saw some Mitel phones (maybe others) support a "shared line appearance" where you could register a bunch of phones to a single line and they would share line state thus emulating a key system.

This drives me crazy. Small businesses have had key telephone systems for 50 years. They have a button for each physical line, they put a call on hold, and then shout across the building, "Hey JOEY! Line 3 is for you!" Then Joey pushes line 3 on his phone. You can't get these people to do a transfer. Park buttons are an ok stopgap, but not the same because now they have two ways to put a call on hold and they have to remember NOT to use the clearly marked "hold" button. Is there a particular VoIP phone or VoIP system that can reliably emulate a key system? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
