Summary: Netgear Wifi
Comment: It was a good product because l don't have to have the computer on to make and receive calls. But it only work well with strong signals. Practically, you have to be within 6ft of a wireless access.

Summary: Netgear WiFi phone with voice mail
Comment: Pros : excellent b/g card, auto-connect works well.Battery capacity great.
Cons : Tech support is bad as bad can get from Netgear,(I love talking to India, don't you ?.).
Phone loves to reboot,hey netgear how about some better firmware ?
Overall : I give it 3 star's as this is the best WiFi phone to come out of production by anyone yet.I hope someone will produce an after market battery for this phone as I have yet to find one when oringinal dies.
Skype keep up the good work as these problems clearly are Netgear's.

Summary: Worst Wifi Phone
Comment: I have this phone for a week now & I feel cheated.
Battery barely lasts more than 2 hrs standby time.
if the phone battery gets drained,and the phone dies, once you recharge the batteries and restart the phone, its completely reset!! you need to re configure it each time the battery dies out.
I am sad that netgear still continues to sell this device.Its a COMPLETE rip-off. I wish i had listened to reviews from previous buyers and stayed away from this phone.
Customer Rating:
Summary: definitely worth it!
Comment: I think a lot of any opinion depends on what you expect out of a product. I simply expect it to work and do exactly what is advertised. This phone does that... and does it well. You must keep in mind that since this is a WiFi phone, in order to get the best quality in performance and sound you absolutely MUST be within a solid wireless area and have a great signal. The lower the signal (obviously), the lower your quality. It does not operate like a cell phone. Cellular signals are compressed in such a way that even with a very low signal, you might still retain good quality calls. WiFi is very signal dependent.
That said... I think this phone is great. It feels a bit cheap, but most phones do these days. It also takes quite a while to turn the phone on, connect to an access point, and sign in to Skype but once you're in it's very responsive.
If I had to make any changes, they would be better quality materials in the physical phone, more features, and a quicker firmware.
Oh and as a side note... if you purchase more than one, or even different types of Skype phones... you can make simultaneous calls (outbound only I believe) from a single account! This worked perfectly when I called my brother with the SPH200W and my wife called a friend at the same time using the same Skype account. :) This is a bonus for families with teens! :)
