Lately, there’s been a lot of talk about upcoming Wifi phones
which would allow you to make use of VOIP while away from your computer. But if you’re
a VOIP-addict and are impatient for a handset to use Skype with, then Siemens
has a few good-looking solutions. Ukiptel.co.uk has 3 Siemens Gigaset cordless
land line phones that are Skype compatible if you purchase the Giga M34 USB
Adapter as well. After you plug the Giga M34 adapter into your computer’s USB
port, it’ll connect Skype to your Gigaset so that you can use Skype from your
cordless phone. The compatible Gigasets include the S440, S44 and S645, which
all have color screens. Ok,
so this solution for VOIP isn’t exactly a wifi phone, but it is definitely a way
to merge your landline and Skype software so that your not tied down to using
Skype only on your computer.
