With few exceptions a USB phone is just and audio device to the host

Asterisk, Sip Phone/Gizmo, FWD, Firefly and Skype.
There are some "Skype Certified" hardware devices appearing. These
usually have buttons that mimic the software buttons on the Skype
client. In doing that they use the Skype API directly.
They may work as normal handsets with other soft phones, but I've
never tried this.
The above is sort of misleading information in my opinion.
It's true that any of the USB phones can function as audio devices, but
if you expect the KEYPAD on the device to work (notice the devices he
mentions have none), the softphone needs to support that specifically.
