Paul-
I have a ZyXel Prestige 2000W. It seemed to be junk at first,
(not saving settings, flaky network connectivity, etc.)
But upgrading it to the latest firmware seemed to fix the issues.
The only complaint I have with it currently is weak encryption. (64 or 128-bit WEP)
YMMV.

You shouldn't need any port forwarding. I've found any SIP phones I've worked with have happily moved from site to site behind NATs, etc. So I see no reason to believe that the WiFi phone would be any different - it's just connecting wirelessly instead of with a wire.
And to answer your second question, I suspect some people would have very good use for such a phone. Myself personally, I travel often - in the last 6 weeks I've been home for precisely 4 days. Most of the hotels, etc I stay at have wireless of one sort or another, most of my friends have wireless in their homes, may offices I work at have wireless. So I could see very good use for having a wifi phone I can take with me....
regards,
Paul
