The Cisco phones don't do presence in SIP mode or "hot keypad" (plus 
I'm not especially fond of the interface).  The Polycom does presence, 
and very nearly does hot keypad, but I get more information about 
Polycom's plans from my cat than I do from Polycom, and that worries 
me.  Every part of the GXP-2000 needs to weigh more (plus the firmware 
on the one we had a chance to eval was clearly not done cooking yet).  
Don't even mention Mitel.  :)  Nothing has the number of sidecar 
buttons we want.  The Snom really is the closest on all fronts (at 
least it is now that we've got a 360 and it fixes the case design 
issues we had with the 220).
