Peter Rojas from Engadget got his hands on the new Wi-Fi Voice over IP phone for use with Vonage. He reviews the phone's design, setup, call quality and especially takes a look at its practicality - should you ditch your regular cell phone? Nah. The F1000 is still in beta. In fact, the entire concept of a dedicated Wi-Fi phone is in beta. We will probably see the most progress in this area with phones that can auto-switch between cellular and Wi-Fi. But for now, hardcore VOIP users should check out the UTStarcom F1000 and see if it fits your needs.
1. Don't buy yet any single taking tool. Besides a VoIP phone is just a little more than a cordless phone. This genre of product requires radical thinking, not thee same old stuff. Would it not bee nice say if Apple were to get into this market and make a multitasking device that combines functionalaties of
-VoIP phone over WiFi.
- of course iPod and iPod Photo, with iTunes to buy music while on the go
- internet lookup device using Dashboard features
That I would buy.
