[Asterisk-Users] polycom ip601 attendant console

Using the "Buddy Watch" functionality on the IP601 you can "watch" up to 
6 people.  The expansion modules are not good for much more than speed 
dials due to this limitation.

After talking to our vendor, the reason it is limited to 6 is due to the 
current version of Asterisk Business Edition's lack of 
[documented/advertised] support for SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY.  Since Polycom is 
"certified" against ABE and the most recent release of ABE doesn't 
support this functionality, Polycom will not open their firmware up to 
allow more than six.

I am hoping someone from Digium is monitoring this thread and that they 
might comment on when the new edition of ABE will be released so that we 
can actually utilize the full capabilities of the IP601's attendant 
consoles.  Right now they (the attendant consoles) are pretty useless to 
  me.  Has anyone else had any success with them?
