Phone with SIP (VoIP)?
|

| 'scuse my laziness - I understand that Nokia either have brought out or
are bringing out some phones that include wifi and Voice over IP (SIP)
features. I have also heard from some who have tried them that getting
SIP to work is a bit of a bugger. Can anyone add to this? Also which UK
service provider offers them or is likely to offer them?
....or should I just stick to a wifi-enabled PDA running a softphone app?
Thanks

OK, had a touch of guilt at being so lazy and not doing some research -
I guess the phone I'm interested in is the Nokia E70 - can anyone shed
any light on how workable the SIP VoIP functionality over WLAN is and
also whether any UK networks offer it as a standard phone - I have found
some providers who advertise it (for example) as an 'Orange E70' but I
presume they just throw in a PAYG SIM? Could the E70 be put on a monthly
contract with the likes of Orange, Voda or T-Mobile?
Thanks again.

Skype is not SIP protocol for VoIP .... so this may not work or will be a
VERY VERY long time.

Doesn't look as if it'll be that long:
