Verizon iPhone Conditional Call Forwarding

As RIM continues to falter, and Apple takes their place in the enterprise, more and more executives are trying to find ways to mimic what they had on their BlackBerry smartphone with their new iPhone.

One of the hurdles to cross when moving to the Verizon iPhone is voicemail. All of Verizon's other phones use Verizon's voicemail. Apple has their own voicemail system that ties into the iPhone as visual voicemail under the phone app. The product guides that came with the Verizon iPhone warns you of this. Once you activate your iPhone you've then abandoned your Verizon voicemail never to be retrieved again. The other side to this is related to conditional call forwarding. As you move from Verizon's voicemail to Apple's all of that changes as well. Getting it set back up isn't that difficult if you know the codes.

To enable your phone to forward to another voicemail system if unanswered you follow the same steps as any other Verizon phone. Dial *71 followed by the ten digit telephone number. If you're successful you'll hear a series of confirmation beeps. The customer support agent from Verizon told me this wasn't possible because it's not on Verizon's voicemail anymore. However, after giving it a shot yesterday it worked great. To turn off the call forward no answer you dial *73. To do immediate call forwarding use *72.

Wireless Lapel Mic for Cisco Conference Calls

I was recently asked by one of our VP’s to investigate a way for people who are at a remote location to participate in a presentation at our corporate office. My first thought was video conferencing, but video wasn’t necessary because participants didn’t need to see each other. The only real requirement was to see the presentation slides and hear the presentation audio. Since we have a Cisco Meetingplace server I figured that would be easy. The challenge was the VP wanted the presenter to be heard clearly and not have to speak directly into a phone. He suggested we find a wireless lapel mic. After looking at the 7937 product data sheet it noted that the phone supports "a third-party lapel microphone kit". I assumed this was a Polycom product since the Cisco conference phones are made by Polycom. I opened a chat session on Cisco’s website. Both a Cisco agent and his supervisor said they didn’t know how the lapel mic worked. They also didn’t know where
