IP Phone That Support HTTP

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.dcom.voice-over-ip (More info?)

The usefulness of IP phone such as SNOM for voice service is very
good. Since these ip phones are always connected (with a valid IP
address) how about using them to deliver information such as stock,
movies etc? In my mind, in order to do it, the phone must fit with a
reasonable-sized LCD and support HTTP so that information could be
written over from the remote servers. I am just wondering whether you
know of the existence of such phones. Your comment will be
appreciated.

Why do you need HTTP? You can send messages to the IP phone using SIP...

Cisco phones gave a menu system that uses XML files served from an HTTP
server.

InterTel is a WIndows CE device, any comment on its stability? I use
Windows CE as a PDA and I find it useful, but the battery drench way
too fast, any comment? Thanks

We have used the XML interface on Cisco 7940/7960/7970 phones to
display custom menus, weather reports, outage announcements, etc.
Public information on how to do it is here:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+Cisco+79XX+XML+Services
If you don't want to write your own code, there are companies like
http://phone-xml.berbee.com/ or http://www.aptigen.net/ that will do
it for a fee.

HTH,
