This is being termed as the brilliance of cutting edge technology. The Gigaset C450 IP is the first VoIP/DECT Dual Mode cordless phone from the Siemens stable. This phone gives you the freedom of enjoying VoIP without even switching on your computers. It is being regarded as one of the first cordless hybrid phone. With this phone consumers would be able to save significantly on their phone bills. It's just like a traditional cordless phone but with a LAN port along with a fixed network socket enables you to use VoIP without even turning on your computers. With the dual mode you can easily switch from VoIP calls to fixed line calls with a press of a button and also provides the option of one VoIP call and one fixed line call in parallel with multiple handsets.

A number of convenient functions have been bundled in the phone such as storage for frequently called number, SMS, color display and hands free facility. The settings of the provider are selected from the handset's menu option and automatically loaded. This phone would be preferred by families as six handsets could be operated with one base station. Along with this phone you get Gigaset's Quality of Service for superb VoIP calls.

Will be available in stores from October 2006 and expect it to be priced at €129.95 euros or probably less.
