Description:

Cheap USB handset (15 quid from maplin.co.uk) sold as Instant VOIP USB Phone.
looks like a normal telephone, with integral keypad, volume buttons at the side. The now usual blue LED at the top, flashes when in use so visual notification of incoming calls. Auto Gain control on input. Does feel cheap when in use.
Seen as USB Keypad Hub

Readily recognised, keypad works, sound maps to /dev/dsp1 on this machine, so useable as separate from main soundcard on skype, kphone, etc. Separate mixer tabs available on kmixer etc. (which is more than can be said for it on windows where it want to be the main sound device after plugging in.)
All fully functioning, keypad works for dialing, a piece of hardware that actually works better in Linux than Windoze.
Tested on Debian Sid kernel 2.6.15, using udev for devices.
