I'm intrigued... I've deployed many GXP2000's now, as has a friend of 
mine, and we've not seen these sorts of problems ... I'm currently of the 
opinion that for their cost they actually are a good desk phone... But am 
I simply looking for trouble? (I've not started to use the BLF features 
yet though - maybe this is where the issues are?)
