Anyone here used these phones? I'm getting more and more frustrated by todays modern crop of routers with their so-called SIP ALGs which are invariably broken, or routers with built-in ATAs which block internal SIP phones from working, so looking to use IAX for some end-users. I already support it for people who want to use (eg) Zoiper and use IAX a lot to plumb boxes together, but never used IAX for many end-uers. Atcom seem to make a lot of Asterisk compatible kit, so I'd hope the phones were OK, but anyone here actually used them - functionality, voice quality, general "usability" and so on? I'm not looking for a high-end phone here - the sort of people who're going to a "hosted" solution aren't those people (at least in my market), so what I'm after is a "fire and forget" solution - as by the time you've contacted the customer, persuaded them to buy a a new router, gone on-site, etc. you've lost any margin possible... So any comments on them welcome! Cheers, Gordon

After a few days of testing and many complaints about register timeouts we configured them to be SIP phones and I never had a complaint again. They are IMHO physically too light, nothing a chunk of lead wont fix though!
