Cell phone customers have found a way to use their free minutes on their regular home phone and avoid long distance charges. [Article LA Times Reg Required] [Article CNN]
Products Reviewed in article VoxLink works with a wide variety of Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson phones. The CellSocket only works with several Nokia lines, though a version for Motorola phones is being readied for launch.
In terms of aesthetics, the VoxLink is smaller, and so takes up less real estate on a night table or desk, and a bit sleeker compared with the boxier CellSocket.
Another possible advantage with VoxLink is a feature for those who have a certain type of home wiring that would enable them to route their wireless calls to all the phones in the house.
The article says these are available for about $100 but all sites I found were selling Voxlink for $170 except these sites that had it for under $140.
