Interesting dual phone coming out. Cell/voip.

A mobile phone offering cellular and VoIP connections in one has been announced.
UTStarcom's new GF200 cell phone, previewed last week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, combines GSM and VoIP over WiFi. It should be available in the spring, the company said, while refusing to discuss price.
WiFi VoIP phones aren't anything new. But they are more cordless phone replacements for home use than cell phone competitors, said Michael Tribolet, executive vice president of Vonage, because people probably don't want to carry two phones just to have both cell and VOIP access.
The GF200 looks like just another cell phone - which is just the point. It is intended to be a replacemeny by offering both in one handset.
