Though I tried free WiFi and I could not make it work.

Seems like whenever a cool feature comes out it is quickly removed from future models. Anyway, awesome write up btw!

[WM: Cell phone carriers won’t sell the phones if SIP is built in.]

Issue I have with Gizmo5 is that they are charging me $0.376 for calls lasting under a minute.

[WM: Haven’t seen that. Where are you calling??]

I couldn’t help giggling at a restaurant in Midland TX, when I dialed 600 and called my business in Mexico. Then I made a couple of calls out my asterisk server to some folks in Mexico, through my local line. All free thanks to my phone and the nice folks at the restaurant who provided the free wifi.

I’m particularly interested in the N71 which also has low band 3G for long range calling in 3 different bandplan versions and could potentially be used as a WLAN to 3G gateway …

[WM: There are a number of other phones that work. See this message thread for details.]
