I saw that news but couldn't seem to find any price/availability info
yet.<br>
<br>
I wonder how well they will work if everyone in the home or office has
one. I always liked the old-fashioned approach where switches were used
to explicitly select a channel. My guess would be that multiple wifi
sip phones will coexist better.<br>
<br>
I have heard credible reports from my own customers of cordless phones
and wireless lan clashes. It was credible because I was on the phone
talking with them. When they switched to their cordless phone the
laptop PC would lose it's network connection. I also had them call me
using the cordless phone while the nearby laptop was turned off. When
they booted it up and opened a web browser I could hear the
interference at my end and sometimes we lost all sound. When the
customer switched back to his old 900 mhz cordless phone we didn't have
the problem anymore.<br>
<br>
For those reasons I am desperately hoping that wifi sip phone prices
will rapidly fall.<br>

I can't help but think my questions are out of place on this list... I'm<br>
asking questions about SIP phones and everyone else is talking about<br>
asterisk. Sorry. <br>
