One of the first consumer VoIP handsets to arrive in the UK is also one of the best, combining a simple yet attractive design with excellent value for money.

Compatible with any desktop or laptop PC running Windows 2000 or XP, the plug-and-play Cyberphone comes bundled with Skype, so you can start making free calls to other users almost immediately. Notable features include a magnetic 'hook switch' that automatically detects when the phone is lifted from its base, a choice of ringtones and enhanced echo cancellation, which renders the sound quality as close to a traditional telephone handset as possible.
