I really like the Cisco 7960 - but its also a bit pricey. At Astricon I was lucky enough to get a Uniden UIP200. I would really like this phone if it wasn't for a few problems with the firmware. I've heard there was supposed to be a new firmware on the way, but haven't had time to look into it. My biggest problem is that the VAD can't be disabled from what I can tell. The first parts of speech are usually cut off and can make calls sound a bit choppy sometimes. I also haven't seen a file like the Cisco's where you can make the phone auto-dial when certain pattarns are dialed. I've found a few people who really don't like that you have to press the dial button. Although no one seems to notice you have to do the same thing on a cell :) I've not used the Grandstreams. Sure they're cheap, but you get what you pay for I guess. Probably a decent phone for intro, but I don't like to give the impression that VoIP feels cheap. Those are my experiences with phones. I've heard the names Sipura and Polycom thrown around a lot without a lot of explicitives.
