Andi,

The user setable IM-like ones like Busy, Be right back, etc. don't seem 
to do anything (when set through the "MyStat" soft key.  The Do Not 
Disturb button works well.  The IP 600 can do presence, however:

exten => 122,hint,SIP/phone1
exten => 122,1,Macro(stdexten,122,phone1)

exten => 130,hint,SIP/phone2
exten => 130,1,Macro(stdexten,130,phone2)


If you setup extensions.conf like so, and create a "Contact Directory" 
with Buddy status, you can then see if they are on the phone by pressing 
the "Buddies" soft key on the 600.  It will show "On the Phone" for 
anyone that is on the phone, and online for idle phones, and (I think) 
offline for phones that are not logged in.  This is what I have worked 
out so far.

I am going to try to implement some of the other softkeys with the new 
CVS app SipGetHeader - stay tuned for more.
