This is a good phone and I still recommend it despite the low rating. It works well if you have a good connection to the base station and you don't need to talk more than 30-40 minutes. After that it goes a little flat. I recommend it as it feels like a phone, looks like a phone, works like a phone but is cheaper, alot cheaper than our BT call costs.

It really is a handy little unit to throw in the bag. The software is just Skype and I think they could have done a better job with that but it works ok. So if you have a dodgy wifi connection and need to talk a long time and need a pure flawless audio experience this is not for you. I use it to call international from the UK and it is great for me but I appreciate it's limits.

Not for all but if you understand gadgets the Netgear Skype phone might be for you, what ever it is it is cheap.

Pros and Cons
Pros: 

Wireless and uses Wifi so you can take it anywhere that has WiFi and connect. Audio quality is clear. attractive. Portable and charges from USB. Very cheap to use

Cons: 

Doesn't handle browser based authentication. Can drop out when not close to base station, or at least not strong connection. There can be delays but that might be a skype thing more than the handset. Battery life.

looks nice for a skype phone. I like the idea of throwing it my laptop bag and being able to use it anywhere I go on Skype rates.
