[asterisk-biz] Polycom soundpoint 301 reference

[bob murphy]

I would also highly reccommend a upgraded model like the 430, 501 or 601 or
the new models.  I just wanted to answer your specific question which was
"do they work".  If your client clearly understands the features and
limitations of the 301 then you won't be replacing phones after your
intitial install.  Nonetheless, IP430's are better.
