Summary: Not keen on Linksys
Comment: I think this is a common complaint these days but it was so difficult to get the customer service to replace the power adapter on this device (they NEVER responded). That I ended up getting an electrician to provide a replacement adapter. This was after a fault in the first two months of using it (and the handset charger was connected to a ups - so should be safe from surges). I reckon these guys are all brand and no service. Their products are ok but without decent customer support they lose my vote - and I hope your's too.
VOIP phones are great and save you lots of money. Linksys are ok but see if you can find a better option.

A plus for the distance of wuireless lenth.
The only problem is that do not have a "Flash" key, for use with PABX.

Summary: Can't dial skype-out calls unless they are in the skype-out directory
Comment: The phone is ok, the screen interface is of poor quality, voice quality is ok, for what I paid I can't complain too much, however be aware that you cannot call a skype out number unless it is in the skype out directory on your pc....that is a big problem for me.

Summary: This Modern World
Comment: Ordered from Buzzmart through Amazon.com. Fast processing and delivery.
Got the phone charged up over night and set it all up in about 5 minutes this morning. So far I'm impressed. I am only using Skype service as i do not have a phone line. With Skype the calls are clear. I opted for Skype's unlimited plan (cheaper to buy a year at a time) and even got my own phone number via Skype so anyone can call me. All set up in a few short minutes.
Forget the phone company, forget voip.
