[Asterisk-biz] New Linksys Products Shipping

[Garrett Smith]

I will second that. I just recently had one installed in my home office
yesterday, and using it this morning for a few concference calls was great.
I could easily leave the room and still hear the conversations.

I was impressed with the volume and quality of the 941's speaker phone,
especially with the low price tag.

Thanks,

I had an SPA-941 provisioned a few weeks ago at a trade show in LA.  It was
on a standalone kiosk and we were allowing visitors on the trade show floor
to utilize the phone and make free calls.  Many people were using the
speakerphone, and were having no problems conversing over the speakerphone
even with tons of other people milling about making noise.  
If you crank it up all the way, it is almost unpleasantly loud in a quiet,
normal office environment.
