And following up my own reply - I've found the newer ones to be better in terms on browser speed than the original 450IP's were. And I'm going to use some in a local charity/museum shortly too (A580's) - as audio guides for people who want to self-guide themselves - since you can have 2 independant (VoIP) audio streams on a base-station, it's almost economical - I'll be providing 2 bases, 4 handsets and a small embedded asterisk box to hold the audio files - punters will just dial the extension of the room they're in to get the commentary (from a crib-sheet, or label on an artifact) ... The commercial ones I've seen seem to store the audio inside the handset, but DECT will cover our area nicely - the commercial ones are also large, presumably to stop people wandering off with them... Hope that won't be a problem for us!
