Anyone familiar with the "BT Hub Phone" that they currently
ship?  Also, the "Home Hub", this is the newer version with N wifi and
ships with the Option 2/3 package.

Basically, I want to know if the phone handset is just a DECT or
if it's actually SIP based and whether or not it can be used with other
wifi devices.  I'm also wondering about the success of unlocking this
newer hub for use with other SIP services or DSL providers.  If the
phone handset is actually SIP based and usable in the "BT Openzone" or
"Fon" wifi access points it could be interesting, if it's just a
glorified DECT base station and handset, not so much so.  If it's a real
wifi/SIP phone does it have browser support to authenticate on webpage
based authenticated wifi access points?

Trying to decide on BT vs one of the other broadband offerings
and unless this phone+hub are adding much value, it seems the "Option 3"
is overpriced considering the monthly + contract termination costs if I
leave early.
