Awesome!!! (but poorly written instructions.)

Pros Phone works flawlessly. Calls are clear and undistorted.
Cons Poor documentation. Install programs hijacks windows sound settings.
Recommended it? Yes

I've used Skype for a while to call home from overseas etc., so I was excited to see this product become available. It gives me the opportunity to have a home phone for cheap. (I ditched my landline years ago.)

The quick installation instructions were fairly straight forward and... Read full review »

First of all, I got a great deal on this phone. I paid just $29.99 plus shipping (for a total of $38 and change for shipping in the US) for a refurbished unit from TigerDirect.com.

The refurbished CIT200 seemed to be not quite as 'refreshed' as I have seen other refurbished units from... Read full review »

Pros Good, works like it's supposed to
Cons Skype only, resets occasionally

Linksys CIT200 IP Wireless Phone (for Skype)

I picked up this cordless phone after having reading some good reviews. I have been using Skype with a USB headset (to my satisfaction), but I didn't like being obligated to sit behind my PC when calling. Because my PC is not in the living... Read full review »

Instructions LACKING - can be difficult to install.

byarch321 Feb 13, 2007
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Lots of features which most will never use for a secondary phone.
Cons Install may take HOURS to complete. Avoid this product.
Recommended it? No

Instructions and drivers not fully vetted/tested - can be a very long quirky install on many PCs. Customer service in the Philipines will know less than you. Quite obviously not fully tested before its release. Will conflict with some sound cards. Enclosed CD with drivers not compatible with... Read full review »

Cons Difficult install. Not user friendly. Compatibility issues with wireless nets,...
Recommended it? No

VERY DIFFICULT INSTALL on some PCs. Buy another SKYPE VOiP phone. 3rd party Customer service in Philipines - will be of little help - you will be on your own. Feature rich, lots of bells and whistles - 99% of which you will NEVER need. Many compatibility issues. I finally got it installed after... Read full review »

Pros Works fine and is cordless, which I really like, not being attached to the computer.
Cons Service is horrible if the phone breaks. It's outsourced and they read from scripts.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had the phone for 7 months and it worked fine. Then it stopped receiving voice and I went thru the Linksys Warrantee hotline. Horrible service. Help desk people haven't a clue. Finally sent a replacement (reconditioned. Charger base was dead. I've now been waiting a week for Linksys to email... Read full review »

Pros Low price on EBay. It works as advertised.
Cons Belt clip broke off and the base is not very sturdy.
Recommended it? Yes

Got my CIT200 for $25 used on EBay. The plastic belt clip broke off and the base is not very sturdy. I bought this phone because I didn't want to pay $150 for the newer CIT400 but I like it so much, I will probably keep it instead. Read full review »
