[asterisk-users] Good, inexpensive wireless VOIP handsets ?

[Tarek Sawah]

try to look for N82 nokia mobile devices.. you get the benefits of a Mobile device with it's phone book and mobility features (games when you are bored :P) .. and other features.. and the native SIP client works fluently with no problems at all supporting almost commercial codecs like (G729).. and it works with WIFI.. i use it at home.
