The phone I pointed to is a WiFi phone, the M9 is a DECT phone. Different animal. The question is regarding using WiFi as the WiFi infrastructure is already in place.

I understand smartphones is not a good option, but what about these WiFi SIP phones?

thx!

Well in that case, you might seriously want to look @ M9 they are cost effective n definitely work.

Most of these cell phone type looking phones have a serious battery drainage problem.

Smartphones really have a long way to understand how to preserve battery and deliver one thing (i.e. calls) very effectively, infact a Multi Function device (MFD) like smart phone has this issue.

    What about phones like the Unidata WPU-7800 (
    http://www.udcsystems.com/product/wpu7800.php) ? Does anyone have
    experience with those? Would these also suffer from connection
    losses?

    Yes...

    Does this work properly?
    It works nicely for home use for power users who can accept the odd lost
    call and know how to restart the app or the phone when something goes
    wrong. Unfortunately I haven't found anything so far which works for
    business use.

    The largest problem is that smartphones can't afford (battery-wise) to
    check for wifi connectivity all the time. If the phone loses connection
    to the wifi, it often takes more than a minute before it is ready to
    receive calls again.

    What models/brands are optimal for this (in terms of ease of use,
    battery life etc)?
    iPhone, Android, and Symbian are about equally troublesome.
