Work's great!
Work's great well worth the price. I just wish you didn't need the software.

Works as advertised
It works, and my wife is pleased because now she is using it for Skype as it were the line phone.
I know there are some wireless VOIP phones, but I needed something I didn't need to recharge or lose in any room, the ringtone is loud enough to hear it in the second story while the computer is downstairs.
I haven't tried with MSN or Yahoo, but if you have Skype, there is no reason to try other IMs :)

Best phone for Skype
I recommend this phone for using Skype to everyone. This is probably the best quality phone for the lowest price. Usually I expect cheaper things to have some drawbacks, so I was surprised when the sound quality and volume for this phone was great.

Good for travel
I had used Skype with a mike/headset for nearly 4 year when I got the Philips VOIP080. And I'm impressed with it. it does not having MS VISTA SOPPORT. :(

Good quality Skype phone for the money
I purchased the Philips VOIP 080 phone because of the price and Philips name. I wasn't disappointed. The Philips VOIP 080 Skype phone has good voice quality and a clear microphone that does not distort. I recommend installing the latest Skype software version 3.8.0.115. It has features that improve the voice quality, eliminating echo and other distortions. My only complaint is that the phone ringer is too low to be heard from the phone's earpiece, even on the highest setting. I have configured Skype so the phone's ringer uses my speakers instead of the earpiece. Problem solved.
