Decent product, works well. [Posted on 2008-05-06]
I have had this adapter for a little over a year, and have been very satisfied. I have had no problems with the driver, and sound quality through my cordless phone is equivalent to using a headset on the computer. With Skype's new unlimited SkypeOut North America Plan for $23.60 and 1 year of SkypeIn for $24, you can get a year of unlimited long distance phone service for under $50! This setup has replaced my landline for a fraction of the cost, and I couldn't be happier.
Great product...soso set up. [Posted on 2008-05-06]
I have had this for about a week. I needed a new option after the country I am stationed in started blocking vonage. (Nice way to repay us by trying to make more money of the US soldiers)It has worked great. The only problem I had was with the set up. I downloaded the updated drivers(vista)and had to install them 3 times. But after that it has worked great. Phone volume has been great. I use it with skype and no one can tell the difference between this and when I was using vonage.

This adapter (D-Link DPH-50U) allows me use Skype while walking around the house with a cordless phone. [...]In case if you wonder (like I did); you don't need any paid service from Skype to use it. Just the plain old-fashioned free talk with other free Skype users and this thing works perfect. With any cordless phone hooked up to the adapter, you don't have to sit by the computer while talking with your friends from distant parts of the planet Earth.
Because so many complained about the driver, I used a driver downloaded directly from D-Link's support website instead of the provided mini CD and it works perfect with Windows XP SP3. I haven't tried it with Vista; I don't even like Vista (*°°°° - my rating for Vista).
EDIT: My mention of what I paid for the adapter was censored out by Amazon from this review. This never happened before and must be some sort of new policy. The adapter was a dozen b.u.c.k.s. Had I given more, or much more than that, then my expectations from the gadget and my star rating could have been different.

Good USB skype phone [Posted on 2008-07-22]
I was so skeptical when I read the reviews of the Skype phone USB. I did not choose D-Link in the first time when I was looking for the USB Skype phone. I intended to buy Vosky. However, many users complain about the Vosky because the Vosky USB Skype phone is always dropping the calls after users upgrade skype or windows SP2. Finally, I chose D-Link Skype usb when I saw a users said that he could use Skype on SP3 with downloading the software from D-Link, not from old software in the small CD (enclosed in the box).
The installation is just a little bit of confused. Just install two times, then the computer can recieve the USB Skype phone.
It works great. I use it all today and I never see any drop call. The quality of calls depends on your internet speed. My DSL speed are 1667kbps for down and 420kbps for up. The quality of calls are nice. So clearly. I use D-link Skype usb with Skype version 3.8.0.139. This product is compatible with my new phone Panasonic 5.8 Ghz KX-TGA430B. Nice!
