Introducing the Cisco 7970 WonderPhone Or Is It?

 
 
The Cisco 7970 probably has the best voice quality of any telephone we've ever used. And we've used lots of them. But the Hobson's Choice for most folks is this. Do you want great sounding IP phone calls with a phone that costs two to five times as much as other IP phones while giving up virtually every other feature that has made IP telephony great?
 
While it will let you retrieve your voicemail messages from your Asterisk server, unfortunately you'll never know you have a message unless you dial in regularly and manually check. This phone has been pitched as the perfect phone for the busy executive. The first busy executive that misses an important meeting because the message waiting lamp never lit up, and this phone would be out the window. Too bad!
