Problems:
OK, let's look at them!

- linux compatibility
Yeah. That's always an issue with phones. I'll grant you; if I get a phone that won't run Linux, it drives me nuts.

Not! :-)
- wireless range
A DECT phone is a home phone. Range is supposed to be as far as your walls go. Why would we want more?

- having a noisy computer on 24/7
But why? Skype works over broadband, and this phone works on Skype, or over DECT.

Well, DECT is just cordless telephony, so no computer. Broadband just sits there, humming not at all, at your telephone line. You don't turn your PC on.

Have I missed something?
