Curt and I were discussing this idea this morning and it seems so
obvious that I'm sure someone is already doing this and there are
probably already some good ways of accomplishing this.
Here's the idea.
When I'm at work, I'd like our phone system (Asterisk-based Elastix) to
just route incoming calls over to my cell phone number, instead. I've
got unlimited minutes and it is always on me.
When I leave work, I'd like the call routing to route to my desk phone,
as usual.
It seems like this shouldn't be too hard to accomplish. If nothing
else, IFTTT could be used with the iOS Location or Android Location
channel to determine my geo-location. From there, I have to DO
SOMETHING with that information, and then have Elastix act on it.
This is where I'm stuck. My best ideas so far are to create a new file
in Dropbox or append a line in a Google Spreadsheet when I'm entering or
leaving the geo-location. This seems a little kludge-y to me.
Anyone got a better idea of how to accomplish this goal? It isn't
really important. It's just one of those ideas that I've had for a long
time and I can't seem to let it go until I figure out how to do it...

This is not a direct answer to your question, Chris. Whilst at Online
Computing, we were looking to deploy [ Asterisk | Elastix ] with a grunt
load of Android mobile devices. We did minimal testing with Zoiper, a
smartphone SIP phone app. The advantage being that you could have staff
register their phones over wifi to your Elastix in the extension ring
sequence of your choice: smartphone then desk phone, smartphone and
desk phone and so on. If the smartphone isn't available or registered,
it could then roll directly to the desk phone and voice mail.
