[cisco-voip] 7832 vs 8832 vs 8831

[Ed Leatherman]

We've also used the Jabra Bluetooth (Speak model I think) in a few small
places and its worked out OK as long as the customer keeps it charged.

We've got a handful of 7832's around, they seem to work OK, no complaints.
No dongles.

I've had some consternation about the 8832 adapter types reported from one
of our regional campuses... the field tech didn't read closely which one to
order and the partner did not know what to order either so they wasted a
good bit of time sending the incorrect parts back and forth. I don't have
any of that model to comment on directly.

I don't like the 8831's.

We still have a bunch of 7937's. Hanging on to them until they quit working.
