as far as I know the phone should support the SIP protocol and some Voice Codecs. So either you should be able to use a VOIP phone company or set up a SIP phone system at home (e.g. Asterisk).

For my part this phone is a great deal everywhere where WLAN is available the phone connects to my home PBX and so I'm available under my house number and I can call out with my normal rates.

This sound like a nice product, but I didn't see anywhere in the publications and the spec’s if it can be used as a pure and standard Wi-Fi VoIP Phone.

I would like to see a Wireless phone with two separate lines.
The first line for GSM, and the second line for Wi-Fi SIP VoIP.
I want to be able to choose how to make the phone call, and to switch between the Wi-Fi and the GSM whenever I want.
The automatic switch of a call between the GSM and Wi-Fi is nice feature, but seems to me as a limiting one.

Is the Motorola CN620 support SIP protocol?
Can it be used for VoIP SIP calls via the public Hot Spots?
If yes, this is what I'm looking for.

If not, there is nothing exciting about this phone.

Does anybody know where can I get a phone with GSM and Wi-Fi SIP VoIP?

Thanks,

Doron

However the phone should work as strictly a WiFi phone when in a hotspot, and if you walk outside range, you'd just loose the call. No big deal. BUT, when you're in the office on a call, you can start your drive home without loosing the call. That would save me about 1-1.2 hours per week!]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/07/28/motorolas-cn620-wifi-phone-most-people-cant-use/http://www.engadget.com/2004/07/28/motorolas-cn620-wifi-phone-most-people-cant-use/
Hopefully another company jumps in and uses the standard b or g and kicks their butt in this new market.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:01AM
