I second this, although I don't have any issues with speed -- Mind you I am 
not using any kind of encryption, which I hear really bogs it down.

Hold works fine for me.  No transfer, call waiting or second line though.  I 
too have had no success in getting phone calls or email responded to.  The 
volume is very low, even when cranked up.  The standy time sucks ass, 
although I consistently get 3h of talk time out of it.  Both the display 
contrast and the display backlight are substandard, IMO.

I'm gonna dump this phone on ebay and try one of the other wireless SIP 
phones.
