4 out of 5 stars Great value   October 11, 2008
The telephony kit is a great value for the $$. It was so easy to install and use. Small and compact to fit in your lugage for traveling. Totally recommend it.


1 out of 5 stars i HATE this phone   October 8, 2008
This phone is a piece of junk. The battery longevity is horrible meaning after a few months, it holds a charge for about half a day and then you have to charge it up again.

The controls and features are worthless.

The phone takes over your sound device so that if you're on your computer and you want to play back your messages from the PC or make a call out from a headset.. you have to switch your sound devices from Linksys to your PC sound drivers. The Linksys phone automatically switches Skype to it's own sound device even though it's not necessary for the phone to function.

I've had this piece of garbage for a year now and I'm going to buy something else



5 out of 5 stars Works Excellent!   October 3, 2008
Works Excellent! All you have to do is call Customer Support if you need help confirguring it. Very easy to use. Insall CD (less than 2 minutes). Plug in USB into the Back of your computer and your phone is ready.

You have to remember that once you plug in your phone, you have to then go back to your Skype Account and allow this phone model to "access Skype". In Skype:

1. Click "Tools"
2. Cilck "Options"
3. Click "Advanced"
4. Click "Manage Other Programs to Access Skype"
5. Change the Settings so that your phone can work with Skype.

Walk all around the house and talk for free. Ditch your landline. This is super! A+!



2 out of 5 stars CIT200 Disappoints   October 3, 2008
My 2-star rating records my disappointment with it's overall performance. It does free the user from the computer, but the price of this freedom has to be counted in lost ability to access skypeout calls, either from the phone or from the computer. In fact, the phone rendered my computer useless as a skype terminal. I can only make skype calls from the phone. This loss of functionality was an unwelcome surprise.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product   September 29, 2008
Have patience to follow the installation steps, and the results would be wonderful... Great quality phone.
