<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Times New Roman">I'm curious what the disadvantages are of using a 79x0 as opposed to a 79x1 phone for SIP. As I understand it I'll need to add the SIP dialplan and assign it to each phones however this does not seem like that big of a deal when faced with upgrading hardware? I understand they lack the horsepower to load the KPML however what else am I loosing if my clients hang onto their old phones for SIP?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Times New Roman">Also, pardon my ignorance but what am I gaining by running SIP as opposed to SCCP? CM will act as a SCCP/SIP gateway so what else do I gain by going pure SIP for my endpoints? I'm not completely onboard with the theory that SIP is going to be the savior of IPT, IPC or whatever you'd like to call it, so far it's just been a thorn in my side. I'd be more apt to jump on the bandwagon if someone can explain what all the hype is (third party phones excluded; AFAIK, they screw you with the licensing in the end so nothing really gained there)? FYI… I'm not completely ignorant of SIP but certainly NOT an expert yet and I'm just not getting it I guess. I know this is a pretty broad question so I'd appreciate any insight you can provide.
