Best Compact Corded Phone For Traveling?

[JohnnyC]

I am looking for an ideal phone for traveling with my Obi.  Up to this point, I have used a bright yellow Sony IT-B3, which isn't necessarily a bad choice, but I think I can do better in terms of size and weight.

My ideal phone would be RJ11 based, lightweight, self powered, with a keypad and not take too much space in my suitcase.  Advanced features not necessary.  What do you use?

Once I sort out this final piece, my traveling kit will consist of my Obi, a 110-240v 12v 2a power adapter which powers both my Obi and also a wireless gaming bridge, (allows me to turn wireless back into an ethernet port) a power strip, and then the compact phone.  

All suggestions appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

It looks like you currently now have a "trimline" type of phone with a base.  There are other brands of that type.

It looks like there are some single piece (no base) phones on the market aimed at the hospital bed market.

My first thought was, if you have wifi, to skip the OBi and just use an android phone with an application like CSipSimple.

I am using my OBi110's with the VTech CS6229 & CS6219. These are discontinued models now and the newer models CS6429/6419 & CS6629/6619 are just similar phones with some improvements added. I like these because the handsets are lightweight and not very large in size.

I used to travel with 1 of my OBi110's & the VTech CS6219-2 (with 2 handsets). But now I just use the Google Voice & Spare Phone apps on my Android phone and that's super convenient. At home, I use a Panasonic DECT 6.0 with Link 2 Cell feature to make and receive my cell calls & GV calls set up on the cell phone.
