Aastra's New Line of Phones

 Aastra has a new line of SIP phones out. They sent me one to test. The Aastra 9480i CT (35i CT) offers advanced features, mobility and security in
a standards-based, carrier-grade IP screen telephone. Utilizing the very popular
Aastra 480i CT design, this powerful includes an integrated WDCT cordless mobility handset. This phone supports the advanced software features and inter-operability previously available only with the Aastra 5i Series products and offers an 8 line backlit display screen, 6 context sensitive softkeys, full-duplex speakerphone, group paging, support for up to 9 calls simultaneously and XML browser capability. The 9480i CT (35i CT) will appeal to those requiring mobility, advanced SIP and XML features in a traditional screen phone design.
