> Hello Mike, "Can you post for all to see some idea of how these applications work, lanagages used, some samples so we can see if we can get some interest in this?" "I am not sure the phone gui has much to do with FreeSWITCH at all, other than pulling a little data from the databases (again, ODBC highly recommended)" --> The idea would be to create a phone GUI on Aastra 6739i that would enable the touchscreen to do something like what is shown in these demos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZDHibW1gUs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y58TPNCOTZI Perform FreeSWITCH actions: answer calls, place calls, setup conferences/add participants, etc. Display FreeSWITCH states: voice mail waiting count, extensions that are online/offline, call log, etc. Introduce new actions: dial By name directory with pictures, visual setup of conferences, etc. Since the Aastra 6739i, SNOM 870, and some others have built-in XML browsers it seems like they could be programmed to interact well with FreeSWITCH and various third party systems such as online feeds like weather reports, news, stock prices. Aastra is taking the IPhone approach of letting developers create the apps. They even have a similar slogan "There's an App for That" versus Apple's "There's an app for just about anything". http://www.ucstrategies.com/unified-communications-expert-views/aastra-phone-theres-an-app-for-that.aspx I don't know to what extent FreeSWITCH interacts with this phone out of the box, it reportedly works well with Asterisk though. I'm sure FS will likely understand certain button presses like hold, mute, speaker, transfer, etc. I will be ordering one within a few days. A few quesions for the FS community: Does this project have merit and fulfill a need? (I have yet to use FS as a PBX) Can anyone shed some light on what features on the phone will work and what I've mentioned will require custom development? Any ideas on how to architect an integration that would leverage what FS already does? Currently our IVR work uses Javascript/SpiderMonkey to call our own web service for database reads/writes. For this project, we'd need to interact more directly with FS and learn more about it's internals. teldev
