[cisco-voip] 7970 miracles

[Schonemann II, James R.]

We have seen an issue a few months back where the 7970 if not used
(place or received calls) will display the time incorrectly.  Taking the
phone off-hook will reset the correct time. I haven't noticed if this is
still happening. I noticed it before we upgraded to CM 3.3.4sr1. It was
most noticeable over the weekend, on Mondays the time would be off by
quite a bit.

All,
    My Battalion Commander is asking me to preform some miracles in
design
for 7970 phones here in Iraq. Some of you may have done some of these
things
before so, I would appreciate any help I can get. The following are
ideas
that the good idea fairy placed in his mind:

He would like these for 7970s......
     Scrolling news ticker feed from CCN or some other well know news
network
     He wants me to get rid of the shaded area associated with bottons
used
that goes across the whole screen
     Does anyone know of a better service than berbee to get services
from...berbee CNN keeps freezing up on 7970s
     Local news ticker server for classified phone VoIP network
     Extended speed dial buttons without an external device....are the
external 14 button speed dial devices used for 7960s compatablie with
7970s?
     Also, I am having problems getting the Fast dial services working.
Not
familiar with PAD...
     Anyone ever expirience promblems with 7970s updating thier
date/time?

    I am in the military so, I have little expirience but we have the
resources smart people to learn. We all have about 5 months VoIP
expirience
now. I would appreciate any of the audiences knowledge on this. I know
some
of these problems are probably elementary and some are not possible.
Thanks
for anything you can give.
