Yes they are. However, product numbers/bundling is a little bit different over here. They typically sell the base bundled with a handset already. For the current US offering, check out http://gigaset.com/us/en//hq/en/cms/PageInternetVoIPNextGPhones.html. I believe the equivalent of what you're looking for is the C610A IP bundle. There's quite a of Gigaset info at http://www.mgraves.org/product-reviews/, even though he did not do an in-depth review of the C610 IP. Instead, he mentions it as a nice upgrade option for the (now obsolete?) A580IP.
I'm running a C610A IP at home, and am quite happy with it. Not a "business class" phone system, for that the bundled handset isn't sturdy enough, I'd say. But good voice quality and excellent battery life. The only feature I'd like to see added is direct SIP URL dialing, which isn't supported, not even through address book entries. When I bought my C610A IP, it was available through a large number of sellers. Everything from specialty VoIP shops to amazon.com.
