When you compare the GXP2000 to just about any more expensive phone it is really just a toy in comparison. There is no denying that. If you are happy with them in your application then that is great. I love my GXP2000 for my testing environment but after seeing it's flaky operation and poor quality when operating side by side with better phones I would never consider putting my name on an install that used those phones. That's just me.
