Thnx Erik.

It was indeed a typo.

I've read several ways to do the pickup, cant remember where
right now.
I know there's an entry on the mantis site.
Also the bristuffed package has some notes about it.

As stated in the BRIstuffed CHANGES:
    - SNOM call pick up with blinking LEDs (extension hints):
        - configure a SNOM function key as "destination", for example 100
        - set up an extension hint: exten => 100,hint,SIP/somePhone
        - and an extension        : exten => 100,1,Dial(SIP/somePhone)
                                    exten => 100,2,Hangup
        - forget about callgroups and pickupgroups!
        - set up a pickup exten   : exten => *8100,1,PickUpChan(SIP/somePhone)
        
        - if SIP/somePhone is idle you press the destination button to call
          extension 100 
        - if SIP/somePhone is ringing you press the button to do a pickup
          by calling extension *8100

Good luck
