[Asterisk-Users] polycom ip601 attendant console

[Dovid Bender]

To monitor who is doing what we writing a program that
every user can have on thier windows desktop to see
the status of all phones on the system. It's AIM
style. Has several groups. On the phone, off,
Available, Away etc. 
Managers can scroll the mouse over the user and see
what call they are on etc. This is very helpfull
because you dont have to program the phone. You have
all the info right on the desktop. (as of now it is
just a monitoring program. When we have time we will
make it so the user can dial from outlook or by typing
in the number on this program).

Regards,
Dovid
