[Asterisk-Users] Linksys WIP300 WiFi Phone

[Philip Edelbrock]

Whoo hoo!  I just received my WIP300 from voipsupply.  I have to let it 
charge before I can play with it.

A few quick comments:

- I started a Wiki page at voip-info to post issues, firmware news, etc. 
  I really like the wealth of info on the GXP-2000 page, so I wanted to 
start something similar for this phone.

- My kit didn't come with a CD-ROM or registration card, eventhough they 
are listed as being in the Package Contents.

- This phone uses a USB port to charge, do firmware updates, and perhaps 
other things.  Sadly... it DOES NOT COME WITH A USB CORD!  You'd think 
for $250 that you'd get a cord included... oh well.  It does come with a 
charger with a usb end so you can charge the phone from an AC outlet, 
though.

- The battery charging animation runs backwards, animating like the 
battery's charge is flowing out rather than in.  A little amusing.  No 
charge status while it is charging, which I don't like.  It would be 
nice to see that it's, say, 75% charged for example.

Does anyone else have one of these phones yet? Any gotcha's as far as 
using it with *?
