I have recently discovered kirk (kirktelecom.com) wich also uses 
something like DECT, but according to their website, a modified version. 
Now, what makes this interesting is, you can use 'repeaters' so you can 
even bridge larger distances. (you can use multiple repeaters, but there 
is a maximum, check their website)

To summarize, I'm using: IP600 and a Kirk4020 and 4040 and a 
repeater-box. The only drawback is, you can't use "regular" dect-phones 
with this system.

I found them to be very reliable, and when using chan_sccp, you can 
interface very smoothly with asterisk.

cheers!
