I bought this cordless phone almost 3 years ago, it worked fine with my old version of yahoo messanger, i haven't used it with the new version.
As these days i only use it as my normal phone, this phone has the most amazing battery life.
Its now 3 years and battery life is just awesome, with one charge almost 2-3 days.....
If you are looking for a decent phone with good battery life then you can always give it a shot....

"Good looking phone but Yahoo Voice isn't so great"

Logitech makes one of the best peripherals, this phone is no exception. Sturdy, nice screen, buttons feel nice, can be used as both yahoo and landline phone. Its missing a clip for the belt if thats a deal breaker for anyone. Yahoo needs to but more work on their Voice services. A lot of skipping and sometimes you can't even call at all. Cheap calls to Vietnam ($.10/min) and Philippines ($.16/min) :)
"An outdated product, but it works"

Bought this older "iPhone" in May 2009 to replace my home phone. Wanted to leverage my Internet connection. Yahoo Voice is very inexpensive (cheaper than Skype) at 1 cent per minute and 2.5 cents to many foreign countries. $2.50 per month gets you a permanent "call in" number which I do not use. The phone requires a PC that is turned on, logged in and signed in to Yahoo. You must also use the older version of Yahoo Messenger, which works fine. Call quality is perfect even with shared, bottom-tier cable internet. The phone performs like any cordless home phone. At $27.50, it is economical and works well. Other Skype-based phones offer Wi-Fi based calling that doesn't require a computer, but at a higher cost.
"CIT 310 Yahoo internet wireless phone"

This is an excellent buy for anything less than $30 to $39. Its a good phone, as it is a dect 6 phone along with yahoo internet phone. You can hook up your regular phone line to the base unit, as well as connect the base unit to your PC thru the USB port. You will need a yahoo.com account, and then you can chat without sitting at the computer using the yahoo phone to anyone on yahoo account. Please note that the phone does not work with any other internet service like skype or msn, it only works with yahoo messenger and chat. the yahoo button answers yahoo calls or allows you to view active yahoo users in your address book. If there is a local call on your local line, and you connected the base unit to the local line, then you can switch from yahoo phone to local phone. It has great distance, and works in the basement even if your main unit or pc is located on the third floor. Highly recommend the phone. Big feature is that it has a speaker phone built in!
Negative: Low light on the display (at least i have not been able to figure out how to increase the light intensity yet); and the volume is a bit low, but only just a bit.
