Reviews of the Linksys iPhone CIT400 Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit for Skype

CNET Review
The Good: Standard landline and Internet Skype calls on one cordless handset; better priced than some competing Skype phones; no connection to your PC required for Internet calls; relatively simple setup; phonebook stores up to 500 Skype contacts; built-in speaker phone on handset.
The Bad: No additional handsets available; can't answer a landline call while putting a Skype call on hold.
The Bottom Line: The Linksys iPhone CIT400 is a capable Skype dual-mode phone, but it doesn't include the expansion options offered by competing models.
