The Cyberphone K from voipvoice works ok, it's available from Maplins I
believe. The keypad on it will only work with Skype though, unless
someone's updated it.

Someone's updated it.
Email xten (I've got the address somewhere) and they will send a link to
download a version of X-lite for use with this phone. works well.

X-Lite works with the Cyberphone K keypad, if you email Xten and ask for
a modified version. I believe SJPhone also works with it. The Voipbuster
software definitely doesn't work with the keypad, but of course will
still work through the microphone and speaker.

Thank you!
I looked at the VoipVoice site, and found that their simplest model is
not sold by most retailers ;-)
I could buy from them directly, but with shipping costs that would
bring the price to the what can pay for the Ciberphone K in the stores
around here - which I still think it's too much for just a handset...
As it appears most handsets are just about as expensive, I think I'll
go on using my sound card, and just plug the mic jack into the sound
card, so that I can hear the softphone "ringing" for incoming calls.
(If bnecessary, I can easily adjust the speakers volume to avoid echos
and feedback.).
