I have not looked at products from every company but I do know a few offer 100mbps FastEthernet connections to the switch and the PC.

I'm looking at ADSI phones simply because I don't have to re-tool my
entire
building; I can use the existing phone network and (I think) get all the functionality I need with the (far) cheaper ADSI phones.
Why wouldn't you just use your existing Ethernet infrastructure putting the IP phones inline between the wall jack and the PC? There are a number of IP phones that have builtin switch/hub that allows the PC to daisy chain off the IP phone.

It was my impression that these phones had 10MB ehternet connections and not 100MB. Not that most of us would notice the difference in browsing the net, it does defeat the purpose of having 100MB switches. (I believe I also saw people on this list talking about strange things happening when they wired the phones/pcs up this way.)
