1. Cisco Systems to ship Wi-Fi phone, looking to enter cellular phone market

Cisco Systems is planning to ship a wireless VoIP phone for Wi-Fi networks
in June. The phone -- the Cisco 7920 -- uses only 802.11b networks and is
designed for use within enterprises rather than totally replacing a cell
phone. Cisco, however, is also reputed to be in talks with handset makers
about the possibility of adding cell phone capability to such a device,
which might carry the Cisco brand. The 7920 joins Cisco's 7960 IP phone,
which sits on a desk and plugs into a wired Ethernet network, and brings
the added benefit of mobility around a building or campus that has a
wireless LAN.
