Canÿÿt comment on the C460, but the S450 definitely doesn't have these issues:

- No SIP call transfer feature (that I can find)

Hit "ext call" during a call, create a new call, then you can SIP
transfer between them.

Where is that? I don't seem to get that option. What I want is an announced
call transfer to another SIP device.

The only way I've found with the Siemens that I have is to use the asterisk native features - So edit features.conf appropriately, I have:

[general]
xfersound            = beep     ; to indicate an attended transfer is complete
xferfailsound        = beeperr  ; to indicate a failed transfer
transferdigittimeout =   8      ; Number of seconds to wait between digits when 
transfering a call
featuredigittimeout  = 999      ; Max time (ms) between digits for activation. 
Default is 500


[featuremap]
blindxfer  => #1                ; Blind transfer
atxfer     => ##                ; Attended transfer
disconnect => #0                ; Disconnect

Then you need to make sure you use the 't' option in Dial() statements, then you dial ##, asterisk says 'Transfer', then you dial the extension, speak to them & hangup to make the transfer, or #0 to get back to the original caller.

It's a PITA, but it works on all phones regardless of their own features, buttons, etc. so I usually teach people that before the phone specific stuff.
