[Asterisk-Users] Recommended Phone for beginner

[James Pooton]

I've been running a pair of Sipura 841's with my business partner.  So far
I've been very impressed for the money.  Having multiple lines (with
multiple registrations) has also been really nice as we both have our "work"
line and "home" line off the phones.  (And you can update them for 2 more
lines for a total of 4 also).  Custom ringers you can upload, 100 number
phone directory and intercom capability really make it fun.  About the only
thing I'd like to see on it is a backlit display. You can find out a lot
more online at Sipura's site, but it's definitely a model to consider.  

Good luck..

-James

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Recommended Phone for beginner

Hello everyone, I've been watching this list for a while, but it is the 
first time I've posted. I'ved decided to setup a * server for my house and 
will need 3 phones (one main, one for my wife, and one for my office). I was

wondering if there was a particular brand that people reommended? I'd like 
ot get an actual SIP phone, instead of an adapter like the Sipura SPA-2000. 
I've been looking at the Grandstream BudgetTone 100 series but after looking

at the Wiki for setting up * with that phone it looks like it might be more 
trouble than its worth. Of course I would love a Cisco 79* but I'd like to 
keep the cost at a minimum but get a good amount of flexibility in tersm of 
features. Hopefully once I get over the learning hump I can start 
contributing to this list.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan
