Customer Rating:
Summary: very good investment
Comment: This is one of those products which i'd never regret buying. It makes the use of Skype very user friendly. I installed it in seconds and started using VOIP(skype) with a cordless phone.
Pros - serves the purpose(using skype without the need to sit infront of the computer)
easy setup
excellent voice quality
can answer second call using skype software(have to use the computer)
can make conference calls using the software
reasonable price
rebate works
Cons - couldn't do conference calls using the handset
always have to dial 00 before the country code and asterisk after the phone number which is annoying
can't answer a second call using the handset
Summary - the amount of money i saved from using skype, this product is worth the investment.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good product for just 10 dollars after rebate
Comment: I had problem installing the driver at first because the driver CD that came with the product does not compatible with Vista. I had to download the latest version from the website. The call quality is good to excellent. I connect it to a regular cordless phone and it works great. I also bought a Skype online number and it works just like any land line phone.
If it was not because of the driver problem, this product would have earned five stars rating from me.
Give it a try to see it for yourself.

Summary: Excellent cost saving, practical gadget!
Comment: I work in international sales and I bought it for my country distributors in different countries. It really allow me to be in touch as we're in the same town, we call each other any time and even the quality of the calls, sometimes are better than regular phone calls. We also get rid of the mic and earphones so the environment around the PC looks cleaner.

Summary: Grate value: works very well
Comment: Works very well once you figure out what you need to do.
If you are using Vista, be sure to download new drivers.
The instructions are pretty vague, but manageable. But it goes like this:
1. Download the drivers from Dlink
2. Install the drivers
3. Plug in the phone adapter
4. Finish the installation
5. Open up Skype and tell it to use VOIP for both the MIC and the Speaker.
(If you don't do this, you will not hear anything from the phone, you will just hear it through the computer.)
The Dlink Adapter software takes care of the "+" sign you need to add when dialing a number in skype. Then you just pickup the phone and dial the normal 001-555-222-1234 or what ever number you want from the phone.
If you dive a little further in skype you can assign speed dials to your contacts, this allows you to call your skype contacts that do not have skype phone number.
Overall it the phone adapter works very, very well. I can tell no real difference between the quality of Skype using a headset or using a phone. Of course, it pays to use a good quality phone, not your grandma's hand me down cordless with a telescopic antenna.
