Maybe because most asterisk PBX's are implemented using business class softphones rather than analogue phones? Most business class SIP phones (and even grandstream phones) allow attended/non-attended transfers with asterisk-stable and/or asterisk-head... Personally I love the polycom IP600 phones, because they 'guide' the user on-screen to help them do the most simple task (like answer the phone :) PS, and yes, these are helpful features, because otherwise there really would be more support calls like the one I got today (read on for a laugh). User calls and reports that their cordless phone extension is not working (connected via TDM card). I suspect that it is the usual problem, and I need to unload/reload the wcfxs driver and restart asterisk because I haven't replaced their card with the latest revision and every few weeks it does this. Anyway, so I ask what is happening, and he says he presses the pickup button and hears 3 loud beeps, and then the phone hangs up. I ask him if the base station is plugged in, and I then hear something along the lines of "Oh... ummm, yeah... thanks, cya..."
