We all know that Skype rules the VoIP world and to be in tune with the leader, RTX has launched the much awaited RTX DualPhone 3088 with which you can make both normal and Skype calls without switching on your computer and this device is set to replace your existing phones. This is being touted as the first standalone cordless Skype dualphone. Just plug it into the Router and start talking with your Skype buddies. Blessed with a convenient display, you get to know who all are online and chat with them.
Along with the phone you get a charging dock and a base station and there is no need to place the phone and the charging dock in the same location as the base station can plug into the router and you can chat with your phone in ay corner of you house. With this phone you can talk for around ten hours coupled with a cool standby of 140 hours.
The phone is as of now available in UK for around £99 (somewhere around $190)

I sold my Netgear WiFi and purchased the 3088. This phone is much, much better.
The charging base makes it easy to just drop in the phone to charge it. Because the cordless feature uses DECT instead of WiFi, I have good coverage and range throughout my entire apartment.
The phone stays cool throughout the conversation and the battery life is great.
There are a few quirks, but I can live with them, as the call quality and usability are great. The ring tones are quite odd, and when placing a Skype call, the ‘ringing’ sound is just a beep. I wish the screen was a little brighter and that the menus were more responsive. Still, this is worlds better than the WiFi phone I used to have.
yes with uk to usa converters for the power supplies it will work. I am using the uk version in the USA. (converters I got from radio shack)
yes with uk to usa adaptors for the power supplies it will work. I am using the uk version in the USA. (adaptors I got from radio shack)
Hi, I bought this 2-3 weeks ago with liGo
http://www.cordless-phones.uk.com/skype-phones/cordless-skype-phones/rtx-dualphone-3088-skype
and have to say, that it was the best buy for a long time. Read all the positive reviews beforehand and wasn’t disappointed. Philips and Netgear have brought now the same thing out, but can it be any better? Only thing I am missing are 1-2 additional handsets, which I was told by liGo is coming out very soon.
