No, because you haven't defined it properly yet.  8-)

What does "takes forever" mean -- how long?  (You *did* make sure to  
configure portfast on the switch access ports, right?)

What does "up and running" mean -- in other words, what part of the  
start process seems to be the hangup?  I don't have one of these  
phones in front of me, but I'm pretty sure they (can be made to)  
display information about what they're doing when they start.
