Alan, don't forget the link to the discussion on your excellent site: http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2008/04/27/siemens-gigaset-685ip-phones/ Same experience here, we've been running our 2-person soho for a couple of years with one base and 2 S675IP handsets. - They look and act like a "regular" cordless phone to the average person who is not a telephony geek. - They work well with a bunch of SIP accounts and g729 if you have that possibility - common headset jack works with cheap headsets - landline connection that works transparently when the Internet connection is down - simple dialplan to route calls - Excellent battery life and talk time Ours have performed flawlessly. Yes, the interface is slow and so is the phone menu system. We just purchased another base and handset for our new office. I love this phone and wish I was getting a commission on the number of units I've probably "sold". /r -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
