Can someone post their experiences with these phones together with 
asterisk, and give an impartial listing of what features they find 
indispensible, and others that are a pain to have missing.

What codec configurations do people use these phones in currently with 
asterisk ?

Can someone clarify the transfer questions, and any other related topics as 
well please. For example do they support callwaiting callerid ? (either in 
or out of band in conjunction with asterisk ?)
