Re: [Asterisk-Users] Difference between Cisco 7940/7940G, 7960/7960G

The 'G' is Global. They redesigned the buttons on the right to be icons instead of the English words help/settings/messages/... so a template could be stuck over those keys in whatever local language. I would imagine there might be some hardware updates as well, but it is essentially the same phone as the 7960. Personally I have been buying used 7960 phones on eBay and I don't really see a reason to buy the 7940. :) -Andrew ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Should I prefer the G and why? Don't know the answer to this one, I get the impression that it has a few minor hardware revisions. Related question, is the 7960 worth so much more than the 7940? Has only 4 more buttons that I can see. Anything else under the hood that makes it worth that? The SIP code is the same for the two phones, as far as I can see the only difference is the 4 extra lines you can configure. I've got a couple of 7940 phones and one SNOM 100, I think I'll be sticking with the Cisco product as it seems to be more reliable and generally just works better.
