[asterisk-biz] Cheap SIP phones

[Cavanna, Richard]

I use polycom and like them.  They use basically the same TFTP setup as
the Cisco just with different XML files.

I use the 501's. About $160 if you buy one or two at a time.  You can
get them cheaper if you are buying in bulk.  There is also a 301 model
that is cheaper still.


Not the cheapest you can get but I think it is the best trade off on
quality and price

We have installed an Asterisk at Home system at a school that we support
using
Cisco phones.  

The school is looking to have their new facility integrated into the
existing asterisk system,

but do not want to pay $225 per phone.  I was hoping someone on this
list
might have experience

using other phones.  These new phones do not need to be very feature
rich
(VM button, keypad).

Your recommendations are highly appreciated .
