Bought one as a sample. Build quality is above average. Battery life is 
very short. Maximum volume of the headpiece is very very low, e.g. you 
can't hear anything while talking on the street or in a noisy 
environment like a bar, etc. Menu is not user friendly, sip and network 
settings are too far from each other. Doesn't support wifi networks that 
use 802.1x billing systems.

Resume: OK phone for home / small office use, but you'll always want to 
get a better one. Has become a member of "Hall of Junk" for our HQ 
museum. ;)
