Hi everyone.
Here is my situation. I travel extensively. I have been dragging the Vonage ATA on the road with me. Wired connections work well, but wireless is a crapshoot with an AP also in the bag. I do some tech support while I am on the road, and am thinking about the softphone to augment my regular Vonage service.
1) Is ther any type of USB handset one would recomend for use with the softphone? I would go with a headset, but hate wearing them for long periods of time. Plus I like the idea of having a real keypad to dial the numbers with.
Thanks for any and all opinions/recomendations. |

CyberphoneK <branded for Voiceglo>
Try this one. Excellent sound quality. Prices for this phone vary widely, and this is the cheapest I found. |

Are you saying that this phone will work as a Vonage softphone? It appears to be specifically designed for a different Voip provider. |

Sorry for the looong delay to answer.
The phone is the CyberphoneK. It can cost twice as much, depending on the retailer. The cheapest happened to be branded and sold by another provider.
I use mine at home, running Vonage softphone on SJLabs software.
I prefer dialing from the software, but IIRC, the OP asked for a keypad to dial, which this phone has. I suspect he will also prefer the on screen dialer because of the phone book. |
