[Asterisk-Users] Recommendations on a WiFi phone for *?

Lots of great comments.  Got me doing a lot of researching and thinking.

What I love is the ability to mix and match IAX and SIP devices on the 
same system.  A breath of fresh air compared to our existing Toshiba key 
system.

That said, I think we'll be doing a combination of things.  Regular SIP 
hardphones, atas, and sip wifi phones.  I'm still a bit stuck on the 
wifi phones because we can have folks use them in the office, the coffee 
shop, and at home (where ever wifi is, basicly).  Cost is pretty 
similar, really, compared to an ata and cordless setup (approx $200 
either way).

I might wait for the F3000.  It seems to support better security, 
networking (g), and has a nicer profile.
