This is a great land-line phone. As a Skype phone its not bad but certainly not perfect. When using SKYPE the phone is often incapable of producing touch-tone (DTMF) after the caller has answered. from Amazon.com I bought this skype phone two years ago for $100. Yes, $100. from Amazon.com I've been using the product for about a year, but it's in need of constant attention. I got this phone to call the next town over, because it's considered long distance. from Amazon.com This was our ideal solution at the time. I am Scottish, my wife is Lebanese and we both live in California. Love Skype, persuaded so many family members to get on it, but it was a pain to leave the computer on all the time in case we got a call. from Amazon.com I'm going to make this a short review of the problems this phone has. i give it 3.5 stars to rank it a little better than Average. These are the problems I notice with the phone after having used it for a year. from Amazon.com The Philips VOIP841 is user friendly and allows Skype calls in and out plus landline useage all without having the PC on. Obviously, production had to be terminated once they hit upon something like this. from Amazon.com I purchased a new Phillips VOIP841C phone. Came with 1 phone and it's modem. from Amazon.com After testing Skype itself (see other good reviews in this set on how Skype works) on a laptop for a month, we decided we liked it enough to get a Skype phone. After spending a lot of time comparing models on line, we got this one because it looked more like a regular phone (we don't need a Skype phone that travels) and so hoped it would be comfortable to use. from Amazon.com I purchased this unit (base plus three handsets) in Feb 2008 and have used it for all outgoing calls via Skype since that time. Registering the handsets took a bit of research but after that it provided excellent call quality (better than cell and often better than landline). from Amazon.com I purchased this phone because I am living overseas and Skype is the only means I have of affordabley communicating with my family and friends in the U. S. from Amazon.com
