Great Speakerphone for Skype, BUT for Windows XP Only

bymmpickering Aug 12, 2008
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great Sound Quality, Compact, Powered by USB, Full Duplex & Echo Cancelation Technology.
Cons USB Cable a Bit Short and Thin, Not Compatible With Windows Vista.
Recommended it? Yes

I'm sure just about everyone has heard of Skype. It is an Internet communication service that allows you to make free calls to other Skype users or very low cost calls to landline phones. This service utilizes your computer and a broadband Internet connection (although there are some new devices... Read full review »

Polycom USB C100S -- I love this thing

byq_woody Jul 11, 2008
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros small, great sound, easy to use, travels well.
Cons Need winxp to use all of the features.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my C100S for about a year now. It travels great in the zippered pouch that comes with it, takes a beating in my laptop backpack and works great everytime.

By using Skype with this polycom I don't need a 2nd phone line, and with all of the 800 numbers that my conference calls use... Read full review »

Incredibly Low-Priced Phone Service with Adequate Quality

byorion522 Jun 12, 2007
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cost-per-call, no connection fees, battery life, loads of features!
Cons Phone Price, Requires a PC, cannot use multiple handsets on one base.
Recommended it? Yes

I have used both Skype and Yahoo voice-over-IP (VoIP) service and even though I believe Skype has a leg-up on quality of service, Yahoo definitely wins in the overall cost area.

Yahoo Voice Brief Overview
I found that Yahoo's "Phone Out" service is more than adequate for making calls... Read full review »

Great idea - with room for practical improvements

bypablo_lie Aug 27, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Skype as your home phone, appealing design
Cons Setup at first challenging - Linksys expects quite a bit from users!
Recommended it? Yes

Some reviews already exist, so I'll be brief and to the point.

If you're not technology literate and expect things to work out of the box, stay away from this. Really - it's not plug_and_play. If you like to fiddle and take pride in having next gen technology work for you, you may like... Read full review »
