Three of my relatives (three different households) use non-pc types and I must say, they are probably the best forms of telecommunication when it comes to homes.
Charges are cheap, the majority of the phones look good, they run well, have extremely good customer service (I had to call them up once), the list goes on.
The only reason they are not so popular is probably because everyone thinks its a PC thing. This thing beats BT, Virgin, Sky, etcetera by miles.
Would deffo recommend it.
