To the Dougs,

This is turning into a me too, but my phones, about 25 of them, don't 
let me dial without picking up the handset, pressing the speaker button 
or the headset button or a line button.  I cannot dial from the idle 
screen.  I'm running the 7.3 SIP image, an absolutely barren 
dialplan.xml and basic SIP.cnf.  Exactly what did you do to make the 
phone let you dial from the idle screen.
