It seems that different people are getting vastly different results. In my
experience, the GXP-2000s aren't bad phones for the money. Do they compare
favourably with a Cisco 7960? No, but they're under a third of the price.

Generally speaking, our clients are *very* reluctant to spend more than £75
per phone. That puts the GXP-2000 at the right price point. There's nothing
else at that price point that even comes close, at least this side of the
pond. I've tried the SPA-841, Aastra 9133i (more expensive, when you factor
PoE injector into costs), a Swisscom phone, etc.

Regards,

Chris
