[cisco-voip] Old Style Phone Lights

[Todd Franklin]

I see what you are saying....I should have also added this is CM 4.1, and
when users dial out, they press a 9, so that is why we can't see what lines
are in use.  But Jonathan, I think you've got it right, too big of a pain.
That and I plan to move to CM 6 in the very near future.  So might as well
wait!

Thanks anyways!
