[asterisk-users] FYI Panasonic Wireless Phone MWI

[Doug Crompton]

Yes I was very specific. Go back to my original post - search Panasonic
MWI - I described what I said and gave a link to the Panasonic specs for
this phone which clearly states that the MWI light blinks with new
messages and that phone company subscription to VM is required.

I did not mention Asterisk because if it works with phone company VM it
would work with Asterisk, assuming the FXO you were using was capable and
setup correctly.
