First Looks:
!Pros
* Looks cool!
+
+*Appears to be able to access a basic [HTML] webpage for phone directory lists/etc that is served on the local [.LAN]
!Cons
-*The Ethernet cord(s) attached at the back interfere with the phone sitting down on the desk, e.g. Phone
has a bracket that sits phone at 45 degree angle to desk - Ethernet plugs into the back between the desk and bottom of this bracket - would be better to have no rubber-boot/plug-doo-dad-wotsit on the UTP plug... on second thoughts, I think Cisco' book mentioned that you should use no jackets on the UTP plugs...

*Does not come with SIP image pre-loaded (only Cisco' Skinny? image)... you need to get a Cisco SMARTNet support contract, then when you have that, create an account on their website, then upgrade your Cisco account with the SMARTNet details, which let you access the SIP images for the phone!
Requires a 48V DC @ 200mA power supply - somewhat hard to come by... cheaply.
*Once the SIP image was loaded, and (very) basic setup sorted, phone had a ~60ms ping time to it when not even being used...
