No agrument here.
Asterisk is great although not necessary if you simply want to make VoIP phone
calls.
In my case I got on to this because my mum and dad both use skype to
talk with family a lot now.
Personally I use a corless phone with a head set all the time. I find
having to be connected to my PC very annoying.
My wife did the 'hissie fit' thing when the last woosh bill came in and
she say how many toll calls I made last month.
There are many great SIP softphones for Linux. Twinkle is a great app for KDE
users.
There are also heaps of SIP based hardphones available (not currently very
available in NZ but I have some inside knowledge that that is about to
change :).
Tell us everything! Cordless is my interest.
Also if you are interested in Asterisk check out the NZ Asterisk Users Group -
http://astug.org.nz (plug).
I'm all for 'plug'. Sameless or otherwise, it helps grow all our
networks :)
/me is off to check out astug...
However my orginal post was asking for feedback from list about the dual
phone product.
