Netgear SPH200D Cordless Phone with Skype

Anytime I buy something that I am excited about or really believe in I will be posting an article about it. Anyway last week we disconnected our home phone because we were sick of paying the Belagcom Phone Company that like to take all of your money so now we just pay them for the internet access, which is still high - 43 euros! ($58). 

Remember the XPS 1210 that I purchased around a month ago well I love it and it came with some free minutes on Skype so I signed up of course and that is what lead me to canceling my home phone line.  What’s great about Skype is you can call other people with Skype for free anywhere in the world and if you want to call a landline or mobile just add credit to your account in 10 (currency) increments. 

My currency here is Euros so it cost me 10 euros and 0.017 per minute to call the States and England our two calling destinations we call all the time.  So far for this month we still have around 4 euros left for credit and compared to our landline we canceled we have saved around 92 euros this month.     

Call your friends through the Internet, for FREE! Make and receive traditional phone calls as well—this phone plugs into your “land line” phone jack. Call ordinary phones worldwide for pennies per minute—with no monthly fees.

Simply plug the Dual-mode Cordless Phone Station into your Internet router (Ethernet port) to enjoy making Skype calls. In addition, you can plug the base station into your phone line (PSTN) wall jack to make land line calls—from the same

cordless phone. Up to 3 additional phones can be added—so you can replace your current cordless phones throughout your home with NETGEAR’s Dual-mode Cordless Phone with Skype.

Manage your contact list and see who’s available to talk to. Use premium services like SkypeIn, SkypeOut, Skype Voicemail (additional fees apply). Supports up to 4 handsets per household (additional handsets sold separately). DECT Cordless–ideal for long range and clear voice quality and Multiple Languages Supported. Nice interactive video here  and you could purchase it also if you like from Skype.

Yes, it had to be done as much as I love my laptop you just can not get away from the fact that you need some sort of cordless phone glued to your ear, well my wife does anyway.  No way was I going to start using the devil money hoard Belgacom for landline service so I started researching cordless VOIP (voice over internet protocol) phones.  This is the one I purchased and recommend it fully after my research and the many reviews SPH200D Amazon Reviews that I read confirm that it is the best for me and you. My SPH200D purchase with my Dell preferred account and it cost me $160.95 with free shipping and included a $20 mail in rebate.
 
If you are still paying those high landline prices then stop it because it’s a waste of money and it is stupid if you have Broadband, ADSL, or Cable. I was stupid for to long and have paid 1000s for phone calls but not anymore. So say F off to those phone companies and follow my lead if you have not already. Oh I will post one more pic when it’s delivered.
