Thanks,

I just read all the literature on the Vtech website, and, I think you are
exactly correct!

Oh well, so much for cheap SIP wireless phones :-)

I seen their ad in the paper this morning. It appeared the phones were
the standard cordless (not 802.11b), and the base unit had pc wireless
(802.11b) integrated with the linksys/sipura broadband stuff. You might
want to check that out a little closer; but, fairly good return policy
if the ads are a little misleading. ;)
