's branded "Glophone", but I have it in use both with SJPhone and XTen for several networks. Perhaps the best solution for net phone use.
I own both of these units. I now use the USB phone because of the handset dialer and better voice quality. The USB handset does not use your pc soundcard to function.
Where are you located..? In the UK Maplins sell a USB phone that works with Skype.

Is the Siemens M34USB available here in the UK or has anyone got any experience of using one?
