Netgear SPH200D Review

Netgear has made a great dual-mode cordless phone. It allows you to switch between your Skype and land-lines seamlessly. While not 802.11, it is DECT based and allows you to walk around the house like a regular phone will calling Skype contacts or using your SkypeOut/In. Here is my review

Do you need that base station if you already have a wifi router?? DOes the phone also have a speaker?

[oneguynick]

You need the base station no matter if you have a wifi router or not. Also it does have a speaker phone

Thanks for your review..

You would run it through your router before simply plugging it into your DSL/Cable Modem.

I really hope some hackers get there hands on this too.

I've ordered mine off Amazon back on the 17th of September & Im still waiting for it to be dispatched. Its always the way, when I really want something I either cant get it or it turns up really late. :(

I will say the SPH200D wasn't my first choice of stand alone Skype phone, the black Philips one was but they are few and far between now days as Philips has stopped making them.

The Philips one looked more cosmetically pleasing in black but they both share the exact same internal hardware...
