[Asterisk-Users] "Decent" sub-$100 SIP phone.

[gw at adcomcorp.com]

Get him a 940 sipura/linksys, big difference, and I can personally say
they are 200% better.
 
I have used both and there is no comparison, from the user's end, it
makes a big difference.  One of the most important aspects of a
customers experience is the ease of use.  If someone simply wants to
make cheap calls, they do not care, but if they are looking for a good
phone for a good price, the sipura 94x series are great.  I personally
prefer polycom/cisco.  Polycom is great for multiple call handling,
whereas the cisco 7960 is great for a remote worker.

Ken,
I would tell the client that you offerd phones for under $100.00 and he
didnt like them so now for a diffrent phone he will have to pay more.
Also I have an 841 and for it works great. I also installed one for a
customer in a mechanic shop and no complaints.
 
Regards,
Dovid

Hey, all.  I quoted a customer about $100 for some cheap SIP phones.  I
was planning on using the BT-102's, but he called said they look like
"Princess phones," and I have to admit that he has a point.  Some of the
other inexpensive phones look decent, but (for example) the SPA-841's
wiki entry says the remote end gets a lot of static.  Since it'll be
being used from a noisy environment (a cleanroom), the less overall
static, the better.  Someone suggested the Polycom 301's, but I'd lose
money on them.  [I'll go with them if I have to, as I'm making money
elswhere, but still...]  So, does anyone have any suggestions for decent
sub-$100, professional-looking SIP phones?

Thanks!
