maybe a softphone on user's PC would be a better option? There are some free options available.

Thanks for all the good advice, but sadly out of my current price range.

I'm finding several phones sub $50 range listed on ebay, A few so far
and this list will grow,

Toshiba IP5122-SD
Cisco CP-6921
Cisco 7940
Cisco SPA-942
Fanvil FV6020
Avaya 4412D+
Soyo 7  G668
Polycom Soundpoint IP501

Any Opinions?
