sipgate - Awesome!

A while ago we had a really rubbish IP telephone system set up at one of our sites, it lasted a while until we ripped out out and replaced it with a Cisco system but as a result we had some spare SIP phones kicking around.

I've borrowed one and set myself up a free account on sipgate. I've managed to get a number with the correct area code for here which is something my colleague couldn't do (there were none available) so he ended up with an 0845 number.

It's free to receive calls, because it's a normal geographical number it means that mobiles can call it out of their minutes allowance and it means I have a dedicated number here in the shack.

I've tested it with a couple of people calling me and it works fine, audio quality is superb and it just seems to work really well.

And it has the '24' ringtone built in
