[Asterisk-Users] virtual extension per user ?

[Rajeev Natarajan]

If the users have a bluetooth device like a cellphone-with-bluetooth or 
their laptop, this might work: http://mundy.org/blog/index.php?p=78 - 
you'll have to modify the script in the tutorial a bit.

essentially - you have a presence server at the two offices - when they 
enter the building, the bluetooth device registers with the presence 
server and the corresponding phone comes alive.

works great for us (as long as the bloke doesn't leave the cellphone at 
home)
