Ideally I'd like an all-in-one box that's cordless can connect to the PSTN, a VoIP service and has an answering machine build in too, but I can't find one - do they exist? I've seem the Siemens C460 range which looks nice but of course doesn't have an answer phone.

I think the best solution at the moment would be a Siemens C460IP or S450IP (which has multiple SIP registrations and multiple calls) and a plain-old answering machine. Then use a splitter on the PSTN line, connect one wire to the PSTN input on the Siemens phone and the other to the answering machine. I'm not aware of any DECT IP phone which has an answering machine built-in at this time. cheers, Paul.

They are nice - having a bit of trouble getting hold on them in the UK right now, but Siemens have assured me they've not end of lined them! A 3-box solution would be an ATA, with BT & Ethernet connections on the outside and standard single analogue socket on the inside, then a splitter going to a stand-alone answering machine and a separate DECT base station - or use a combined DECT Base + Answering machine for a 2-box solution... But still much spaghetti though...

But it is in Siemens' road map. Whether there will be a UK variant, and whether it is ever going to happen, I don't know. That's an interesting comment. It's not like the UK is massively behind the rest of Europe in terms of broadband penetration, so why do you think that might be the case?

Yeh, that was my conclusion after having a look around. Thanks Andy I suggest following solution: (1) Use an ATA to connect your PSTN, answer machine to SIP server. (2) Put these lines, both PSTN and VOIP, and answer machine to the same ring group. Then, when receive an incoming call, all of them will ring and your answer machine can answer the call. miniSipServer is a software based SIP server, it can provide ring group service. Have a try.
