I own both the snom m3 and a Siemens S685IP. Both are basically good
devices, but each has its little issues.

The S675/685IP supports G.722 which is great! But it has no mute
button, which is a drag. Also, its less expensive.

The snom m3 is smallish in the hand, or so my wife tells me. It's also
a little too easy to turn the handset off by accident. However firmware
development at snom is progressing nicely.

Aastra and Polycom have new SIP/DECT offerings targeting SMBs. Have not
had a chance to try these yet.
