Unfortunately, telling them to dump 50-some Polycom phones that still work
is a tough one.  Not impossible though.  So if I understand correctly, the
user reboots the phone when he arrives, and goes into the configure mode?
 Is it end user friendly, or complex?  I still don't have a server with the
Digium phone module on it to test.
