Dean,

Tough call ... I haven't played with an IP 500 in a long time now and  
all that I know is Polycom officially doesn't support them.

I'm sure the 2.0.1 firmware wasn't designed to ever work with  
bootroms 2.xx. I'm sure the problem lies with either the phone not  
supporting it or the bootrom not accepting the firmware, but I'd be  
very weary of upgrading an IP 500 to a 3.xx bootrom.

Maybe someone else has better experience with this that has some of  
the older phones.
