[cisco-voip] Documentation for 7961/7941

[Ed Leatherman]

Has cisco ever indicated when they might EOS the 7960's? My concern with the
7960s is future compatilibity with newer basic features.. if I deploy 200
more sets next month and use 7960's, will I be replacing 3/4 of them in 2
years anyway with 7961's? Seems like they were barely able to squeeze BLF's
onto them for CCM5.

I can imagine Lelio's head popping if they decided to let you forward
non-primary lines from the phone but only on the 7961 and up ;)
