The latest to join the many treats are WiFi cell phones by Linksys with which VoIP calls can be made over Wireless –G networks.

Expected to retail at US$ 220- US$ 370 the phones have a user interface that can be configured to function using available wireless-G networks.

Wow:

• You can access your VoIP service, check mail, and view videos as the built in browser of WIP 330 will find and access the World Wide Web.The 330 is sleek just 1.84 x 5.32x0.74 and weighs 4.2oz. It comes with a pixel color screen, numeric key pad, soft keys and a 4-way navigation pad.

The WIP330 has:

• SIP v2 standards.

• QoS, support for quality of service.
  
• Enhanced power savings.
  
• Quick Hotspot authentication.
  
• The use of HTTP for configuration and upgrades.

• If you choose to use WIP 300 then the connection to Wireless G is through a Linsky router.

Another giant in communications Toshiba has launched two VoIP phones the Hitachi IP50000, Spectra Link 6020, and a wireless PDA. The IP5000 will function on 802.11b Toshiba network and the Spectralink on private wireless networks. These are just two among many choices.

A wireless G phone presents many options: phone calls, web based e-mail and videos, three-way conference calls, call on hold, and a register for incoming calls. VoIP providers like Vonage give priority to the consumer need and facilities come at no extra charge making VoIP an affordable and attractive proposition.
