I travel a lot for work. I frequently find hotels that have wifi, free or 
otherwise available. But I've yet to find it anywhere near sufficient to 
support voip applications. At least not good enough to 
compel me to not use my cell phone. If you have control of the host LAN then 
you can ensure it meets the needs of a wifi SIP phone, otherwise why bother.

Has anyone ever seen anyone making a voip call on a wif handset ata public 
hotspot? While that would score many geek points I doubt it would work in many 
places.

About 18 mo ago I bought the Hitachi Cable WIP5000 handset. It was seriously 
flawed so I resold it after a few months and settled on the Aastra desk phone. 
I do wish the cordless handsets 
were a little more like a Panasonic cordless phone...more buttons...easier to 
program, etc.
