Too lazy to read again the previous posts, but if remote access to a
Windows PC is what's being solved, you may want to look at LogMeIn
(http://www.logmein.com). (On an interesting note, LogMeIn bought
Hamachi and is now the company funding its development)

If an IP phone is an option, I would suggest a Cisco 7940 (cheaper
ones can be found in Ebay I think). It's what we're currently using
for a call center. The great thing about it is that its configuration
files (account names, passwords, etc) are stored remotely. You just
set up on the phone which server to get the config files and then
reboot.

As the config files are stored remotely, users don't need to do
anything on their end if settings change. For example, if you're
changing a password, you just edit the file on the TFTP server, and
then ask the remote user to reboot the phone. The phone then gets the
new configuration via TFTP and overwrites the older settings.
