I'm not very happy with these purchase. The telepphone does not work always good, it works direct connected with the skype program in your computer and here some of the problems I experimented:
1.- Some times when I have got an incomming call it just does not sound while the incoming call sounds at the PC
2.- If you are in a diferent sesion than the one is your skype normally runing it does not work.
3.- I had to download an update to be abble to see the name's telephnones I have saved at the skype program
Next time I'll by a telephone yhat can work independent to the PC
 a piece of junk March 21, 2008

if you're interested in a skype/landline phone that works forget this. we literally threw ours out. on the landline, calls came in so low in volume one could not hear. using skype, calls were bearly acceptable and one incurred a huge hum & distortion of the audio on every call not applicable to skype. another negative is you must go through your pc to utilize skype.
we replaced this piece of garbage with a philips voip8411 b37. it operates flawlessly without requiring a pc.
Returning to headset on Skype March 16, 2008

This product needs more work. Mine was purchased in February 2008. Loading the software on a Vista OS machine (which may have contributed to the problem), the 2 in 1 never fully connected with Skype; example: my contact numbers did not make it onto the handset viewing screens. On Telco standard phone lines, the handsets noticeably clipped the low-volume portions of inbound calls, to the point that folks would have to repeat statements to be understood. Using the handset speaker was a partial work-around, but not always appropriate. Not effective in my judgement; I returned my unit.
 A great Skype phone October 29, 2007

I had a bit of a time finding a decent phone for use with my skype until I found this one. I keep my home phone to no long distance and of course cell phones only allow so many "anytime" minutes. I bought a year of skype and was very pleased with quality over a headset using the sound card through the computer but I did not desire to be tethered to the computer each time I needed to make a call. The first cordless skype phone I bought was horrendous (read my review of it also) and was becoming discouraged. I could not understand what is so complicated about getting decent quality from a cordless skype phone when you can so easily from a regular cordless phone.
I bought this phone not expecting much but still hopeful. I was pleasantly surprised. At first it was not the greatest as I kept getting drops in my calls that I never got using the sound card in the computer. I was using version 3.5 of the skype software and decided to try downgrading the software to 2.5. That was the trick, now this phone delivers great quality calls with no drops. This phone can also be used as a regular phone but I have not used or tried it that way as I am pleased with what I already have.
Using the 2.5 version of skype I say this phone is worth the money, and I almost forgot that it uses AAA rechargables (included) but if you need quick power you can put regular AAA in to make a call (just don"t forget to remove them before placing the phone back in the charging base.
You do need to have an AC outlet close for the base, I mention this since many are powered solely through the USB but this one is not.
I'm pleased with the quality I get from this phone and recommend to anyone looking for a good cordless skype phone.
