I would just be aware that there are some newer models introduced in the last 1.25 years... this likely means that older models might not be around as long as the newer.

Lloyd, Thanks for the input. There are quiet few rep phones from yealink that I see listed on the vendor's list (the one everyone buys from). I am looking for the best price and nothing less than a 6731i. Which one of the models do you use in field that addresses the day to day needs? I am tempted to buy the model lower than 23gp like: *SIP-T21P E2 or SIP-T20P* Thanks, -Bruce On Fri, May 22, 2015 at 12:31 PM, Lloyd Aloysius <[email protected]> wrote: > I always use the Polycom phones.
