You can do this relatively easily with Perl.  There is a script somewhere that 
will take your sip.conf and generate phone[exten].cfg files, but it knows 
nothing about MAC addresses and as such will not generate the 
[MACADDRESS].cfg files.

Again though, this isn't too tricky to do.  A few hours' worth of work.  The 
tricky part would be making sure you got the right phone to the right desk if 
the extension #s are physically important.  :-)

If you need some help with the script I am available for consulting.  Contact 
me offlist if this is something you'd like to discuss.
