This looks really cool, and delivers wireless internet along with an internet phone which can either be part of your other phone, or by pressing 5, you can use the internet number which gives you free calls to UK landlines during evening and weekends.
It took me a while to sus out how the phone worked, but the internet router itself was a piece of cake to set up and use - unless you are disabled so physically can't set it up yourself then I certainly would not pay the £50 BT want to charge to set it up for you. If you can use the internet you can set this up.
I phoned the BT helpline to get the phone sorted and they were fab! took about half an hour though. Phone has the advantage that you can see the number of the person calling and if you missed the call the number and time of call is there.
The other thing it allows you to do is phone the other number in the house - which means I can use it to ring the main landline to get my husband out of the garage without having to bother to go outside and shout at him.
It looks like a mobile, what a shame you can't use it to text though, espcailly as some fo the BT packages come with free texts.
