I had an SPA-941 provisioned a few weeks ago at a trade show in LA. It was on a standalone kiosk and we were allowing visitors on the trade show floor to utilize the phone and make free calls. Many people were using the speakerphone, and were having no problems conversing over the speakerphone even with tons of other people milling about making noise. If you crank it up all the way, it is almost unpleasantly loud in a quiet, normal office environment.

Huh? The IP301 can't really be considered a Speaker Phone, as it has no microphone whatsoever. Full Duplex, Half Duplex don't apply when you have one way audio and no Microphone.

The IP 500, 600, 501 and 601 have GREAT speakerphones, which far surpass the Cisco 7960 in quality and tonality. While Cisco may have licensed some technology from Polycom, their implementation of it pretty much sucks compared to the Soundpoint series.

The new Linksys SPA-941 looks like an updated Sipura SPA-841 in a weird, hybrid Cisco/Sipura case. You now have the Cisco coloring and such..

But...
Sipura == Cisco now
Linksys == Cisco now

So.. who knows what is REALLY inside the thing? Maybe I'll get one, dissassmble it and post comparison pics against the Sipura SPA-841 and we'll see what is what..
