Does anyone have any recent news on the Virbiage FT201 IAX Hardphone? I'd *really really* like to deploy these phones instead of SIP hardphones, and I can't help but wonder if I'm going to shoot myself in the foot (or another sensitive area) by deploying a ton of SIP phones just to find the IAX Hardphones were released a week later... Thanks, Brian D'Arcy

Which is what they have been saying for the last *3* months. I'm giving up waiting. They seem to be vaporware. :( Does anyone have a supplier for the Uniden UIP200 phones?

Uniden does have a SIP phone. I posted a review of it on Friday of last week. There were some problems with the list last week, so look for a re-post of the review, as well as contact information for a distributor in a few moments.

Thanks for the reply Tim. That's a real shame. The featureset of the soon-to-maybe-be Virbiage IAX hardphones seemed too good to be true. I guess I'll go ahead with a full SIP deployment, and hope IAX hardphones become a reality in the future.

The guy is super responsive and proactively sent me email when the phone was shipping. Don't know if the UIP200 is any good as I've not yet received it, but Todd is great!

Michael, I've heard Todd's name also, however a few people from the * IRC room gave him a call and were told that they would not be sold to. I've had the same perception and experience with their staff. Extremely professional and go out of their way to make you happy. A great company to do business with (Teledynamics). An additional contact can be found in the review of the UIP200 post which should have just gone up a few minutes ago.

We're waiting on the processor chip to be made for our first production run, there's currently no stock and they're in the process of making more. It's completely out of our hands and, trust me, I'm as frustrated as you guys are. As soon as our manufactures tell us the completion date, I'll post. -Adam Brian D'Arcy wrote:> Does anyone have any recent news on the Virbiage FT201 IAX Hardphone? > I'd *really really* like to deploy these phones instead of SIP > hardphones, and I can't help but wonder if I'm going to shoot myself in > the foot (or another sensitive area) by deploying a ton of SIP phones > just to find the IAX Hardphones were released a week later... > > Thanks, > > Brian D'Arcy > > > _______________________________________________ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users > To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users >
