My Polycom is on loan as a demo and I assume it is one of the first revision models. In fact it shows as Rev A on the back of the phone.
I have all the same buttons you listed save for the Messages button. The 3rd from the bottom on the right column of buttons sayd Voice Mail on my version. That corresponds to the location of your button that says Messages. I assume this was changed by Polycom since their phone has other messaging capability (isntant message for instance) and it was easier to use Messages and unify the meaning instead of Voice Mail and lock it into one type of messaging. Does your Messages button dump you right into voice mail or do you have to navigate a menu first? Thanks, Wiley -----Original Message----- From: Chris A.

On the left side are the blue speaker, red mute, and blue headset buttons, then next to them top to bottom are the three Line buttons (clear covers for putting your own labels), Directories, Services, Call Lists, Conference, Transfer, and Redial. On the right of the system, top side are the 4 way selection pad with select and delete, then below that are Menu, Messages, and Do Not Disturb, and finally Hold. In the middle are the 12 keypad keys, 4 soft keys, and volume + and - buttons. No where am I able to find a hard voicemail button. -Chris On 10:42 AM 7/19/2004, Wiley E.
