Re: [Asterisk-Users] [OT] Small SIP phones?
Well, I know it isn't a classic style handset, but the Prestige 2000W is small light and portable. If you have a suitable WiFi Card in your laptop acting as an access point, you could squeeze a couple into your laptop bag and do a pretty convincing demo without having to hook into the client's network at all. One thing though, the current version of the firmware of these phones doesn't seem to be able to do 128 bit WEP encryption and aLaw at the same time, it occasionally drops a 10th of a sec. I've turned off encryption on that network, and now the phone seems fine. Apart, that is, from the fact that I haven't quite got to the bottom of why it sometimes slips into g729 when I haven't asked it to. I suspect the fact that I'm running 6 month old * build may be partly to blame.

The main reason is that (I believe) the quality of audio with a soft phone is generally not as good as that from a real SIP phone? The other reason is that I want to be able to show VoIP in operation to clients (which is where I would be taking the phone with me), so a standalone phone, which is not dependent on any software installed on my laptop, is a much neater arrangement. > > -Original Message- > > From: Florian Overkamp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > On Sun, 2004-12-12 at 21:27, Antony Stone wrote: > > > Thanks.

True, you don't need the high voltage ringing, but with a standard SIP phone you still need a PSU for it. I couldn't rely on a client's network switch supporting PoE for when I wanted to plug one in.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] [OT] Small SIP phones?
I may be wrong, but if you always carry your laptop around, why don't purchase a USB handset? It'll give you a mic and phones in one handset, and installs as a sound card, so it can ring and you don't have to put it next to your ear (the problem with using head phones is that once they're on the desk and not on your head you might miss some phone calls). Some of these come with a softphone, and some can use your softphone of choice. As far as I know, their not cheaper the full fledged VOIP phones, but it'll be the smallest option > -Original Message- > From: Florian Overkamp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, December 13, 2004 12:21 AM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] [OT] Small SIP phones? > > Hi > > On Sun, 2004-12-12 at 21:27, Antony Stone wrote: > > Thanks.

Three, in fact. The powersupply also adds to the required space. This is one of the biggest advantages of having an all-in-one solution, because you don't have to generate high voltage/high power ring signalling.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] [OT] Small SIP phones?
I don't know of a small phone, but you use a WorlACCXX TA200 device (pretty small) along with any standard analogue phone. http://www.worldaccxx.com I have one and carry it around in my laptop bag.

Hi. Does anyone know of any small SIP phones (and preferably have some experience of using them and happy to recommend them)? By 'small' I mean a single-piece phone, with dial buttons in the handset, so that it can be carried around easily in a laptop bag. Something like http://maplin.co.uk/images/Full/35493i0.jpg (which is unfortunately just a standard analogue telephone).
