Netgear Skype Phone firmware updated
by Volker Weber
Netgear has updated the firmware for the SPH101 Wifi Skype phone. It went from 1.0.36.61 to 1.0.46.11. Unfortunately I do not have release notes for the firmware, which could tell me about all the changes. I can confirm that there is a new entry field on the home screen. It lets you type in numbers as well as names. The phone UI is now available in five languages: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish.
Things that have not changed: The phone still emits the annoying login sound, even if you have switched of notification tones, it still has only three terrible ringtones, and the proxy settings are also grayed out. If you find a list of changes, please comment.

Still not usable at a public hotspot then?
Not if you have to login, or even look at a webpage to accept T&Cs.
