While most “proprietary-like” vendors have extensive wireless mobility solutions, the standards-based SIP protocol has recently been lacking in the availability of quality wireless SIP endpoints. However, the competition seems to be increasing as German developer and manufacturer, Snom, introduced the “m3” to the North American market, a wireless SIP handset that uses DECT to communicate to an IP base station.
“The snom m3’s unique blend of mobility, elegant design and advanced VoIP features has has already received an enthusiastic reception in Europe and we are excited by its potential in North America,“ said Michael Kneiling, CFO and executive vice president of marketing and sales for snom. “The snom m3 provides VoIP users with the best of both worlds – true mobility and rich, high fidelity audio quality.“ What’s most important is that devices like the “m3” will hopefully spur more development in the SIP wireless arena. With excellent deskphone offerings already in place, we can now hope for an equally feature-rich wireless selection as well.
