While neither polycom nor cisco are responsive to the asterisk user community, and I would like to say "Don't buy polycom/cisco until they start supporting asterisk", I can't. Polycom phones are simply the best I've seen, and time and time again, that thought/personal preference is repeated on this list by other people. I do always prefer polycom over cisco because at least you don't need to pay for firmware upgrades on polycom, and they really seem to be easier/more powerful to configure. > The only area where the Zultys 4x4/4x5 were better tahn the Polycom > IP500/600 was in handling multiple lines.

Actually, I think the 1.5.2 SIP firmware for the polycom phones fixing this. I have 1 registration, with 1 call per line appearance, which seems to give me what you are suggesting. I haven't quite found the best solution to all this yet, but at least the config options are now available. PS, Actually, I have 2 lines configured to my asterisk box, with each other line configured to a different asterisk box so I can be an 'extension' on their phone system too...
