Question: Good Skype Phone

Recommendations for a standalone Skype phone?

I've been looking for a dedicated Skype phone, cordless, where the base station plugs into the router. Support for normal phone line is optional. I'm in Canada and looking to spend less than $100. I found this one on skype's webstore, but the reviews aren't convincing me. Anybody here have a model they really like (or hate)?

This one seems to review pretty well.

I'm personally of the opinion that you're better off getting a 'real' VOIP setup for this sort of thing: The hardware's either cheaper (consumer, like Grandstream) or more robust (Business, like Cisco), and the service is cheaper per minute - and you can move to another provider painlessly if you don't like the one you're using.
