>From what I have heard, the snom phone is capable of this. I have also
heard some people say they got it working on polycom phones, but I
haven't been able to get it working. Though maybe I haven't tried as
hard as I need to...

I have seen many requests from many people asking how to make this work,
and am yet to see a decent 'howto'...

Hopefully, someone with this working on a polycom will chip in with what
they needed to config in the xml files, and the *
extensions.conf/sip.con files

Adam
