Hi,

Great looking phone. Are there any plans for a VoIP version - if so, any idea on time frame - 2, 3, 6, 12 months?

Cheers,

Andy

Nice Phone.

Why isn't this available in the US?

Ben 11:45 PM, November 30, 2008

Hi Ben,
in regard to the reasons I can only give you rumors:
It seems that the US market is to difficult for Gigaset to enter because you have different phone standards and not DECT.
Also: The market situation is very difficult, complicated and in therefore hard to enter (provider driven).

Moritz 11:25 AM, December 1, 2008

I have bought this phone and I am amazed by the address book for 500 contacts...if you have lots of contacts it is even more necessary to group all these contacts. Even my BenQ mobile phone has this group by function...I think this is a standard function.

Message for US people... you can buy it on eBay, but you need to replace the adapter, since this Gigaset is not made for the US market and her electricity protocols.You can ask a specialized electricitnist to make a good an=d working adapter for you to make it work in the US. This is how I did it, when I bought the Gigaset 8825 which was speicially made for the US market only and which I used for years in the Netherlands.

Mischa Knauf 9:42 PM, December 9, 2008

Hi Mischa Knauf,
thanks for your information. This is also what I have heard from different users in the US.

Moritz 5:48 AM, December 10, 2008

Hi Mischa, that's great news, thank you! Could you give some more advise on how make such an adapter?
