Product Description:
VOIP841 series is the first DECT cordless phone with Skype that works without a PC, offering consumers total flexibility and independence from the PC. A full-color graphic display and outstanding sound clarity bring the emotion back to calls. Use your VOIP phone to call via Skype wherever you are. With Skype you can enjoy making free calls all over the world to any other Skype users. Skype, SkypeOut are trademarks of Skype Limited. As your dual phone is connected to both the standard PSTN line AND to the Internet line, you can establish or receive landline and Internet calls on the same handset. Handsfree mode uses a built-in loud speaker to amplify the voice of the caller, allowing you to speak and listen during a call without holding the phone to your ear. This is especially useful if you want to share the call with others or take notes during a call.

Rating:  - Highly recommend it!
I've purchased this product since April 2008 and I love it, makes my life easier and cheaper.
Sometimes you have to reset (unplug the base from the outlet or take the batteries off from the phone) the telephone due to problems with the internet provider (system down) but In overall works great, I haven't had any problem. I highly recommend it!
Skype software is installed, you just have to plug it in, upgrades automatically.

Rating: - Wonderchild of technology...
For those who are a little tech-crazy this product gives a real high.
I never have had any problem with this phone since i bought it 6 months before. I am using this phone as my home (landline) phone. My parents from India call through Skype internet client to this phone. This itself justifies the little higher investment.
It is unfortunate that the product is no more in the market. I was thinking of buying one for our parents at India.
But, at present price of more ... Read More
Rating: - Great phone if you're not physically disabled
Nice phone with great sound quality but I do not recommend it to anyone with a physical disability.When a call comes in, you have just over 10 seconds to answer or it goes to voice mail.This cannot be changed.I haven't successfully answered a single call in the month I've had it.I am really surprised that Philips did not have the disabled in mind on a modern product.
Rating:  - Best Available Option
After all the research I did on Skype options, the Philips 841 was the best I found. I'm very grateful for the product, and it fills a valuable need in order to bring Skype to the mainstream.
However, there are some definite issues with this phone that you should know about if you are considering purchase. (I would only give the product a 5 star rating if it were flawless, and 4 stars if it only had minor annoyances. But, I've given it three stars because the overall rating - from so many ... Read More
Rating: - Good phone, but broke after six months!
I purchased this phone in April.It is now November, and the handset won't communicate with the base unit.It keeps saying that it is unregistered, and it won't let me register the phone.I contacted Phillips, and they are supposed to send a replacement.The phone is discontinued, so I am hoping the replacement is the same phone or similar!It sucks, because I really liked the phone.The only things I didn't like about the phone was each time it was unplugged it would reset to defaults and the battery ...
