5312 Replacing 5212?

[amlancaster]

Hi, I have just heard a rumour that a 5312 will be replacing the 5212 in Q1 of 2009. Can anyone confirm this and does anyone know the features. I was told it was going to have a large display like the 5330. Anyone have any news on v9 for the 3300? features etc?

Any rumours or lastest news would be good to hear. Were about to rollout a complete Mitel solution with about 3000 extensions.

There will be a 5312 and a 5324. That is all that can be said at this time (and "nice.....").

Ah come on! Can you give us a little insight?

Any other entry level IP phones in the future? I am looking for a good entry level phone for classrooms. Must have LCD display.

You might want to look at the 5304, the same as the 5302, but with an LCD display

There is no 5304 on thier web site.

It is being released later this year.

Or "colour" if you are Canadian.

Got a 7970 on my desk (next to a 5340, natch) - More of a novelty than anything. I like the big handset and the way they do their call history (missed calls), but the 5340 blows it away feature-wise. What has some of the admins drooling is the 5340 + the integral wireless headset kit. Once a couple of those get out on the floor we're going to have a tough time controlling the snowball effect.
