What other people think about Linksys WIP320 Linksys Wireless-G Skype iPhone?
Linksys Skype I-Phone
Operates as described but lacks browser for use in pay for connection environments, poor battery life, need to have it fully charged every day even if you did not use it the previous day. Needs mute function. Volume could be louder, too. I would wait and buy next generation.
Linksys WIP320 iPhone falls short
The product description in January 2007 is inaccurate:
batery life in the standby mode is about 20 hours, not 60;
there is no hands free speakerphone;
if you use a standard plug-in headset, the microphone does not work (tested two units).
There is more:
the headset is very loud (you have to listen with the phone an inch away from your ear), but there is no volume adjustment;
the microphone has low sensitivity, so you find yourself yelling into it;
the clock resets itself when the power is turned off.
I returned mine.
Battery Life is Low
This phone is nice. The setup is really nice and easy too. However, the battery life is extremely low. I get less than two hours talk time. I have to keep it plugged in at all time just to make sure I can receive calls.
