I agree.
Everything is moving away from desk phones into either headphones plugged into pcs or mobile apps.
I mainly work from a stationary standpoint so a desk phone is just fine by me.
It does one thing and one thing well.
I like the idea that people can make money anywhere hey are, but that just isn't me.
I feel better when I have a desk to sit at to do my work and people won't bother me.
I go outside my office room and it can be family time for me and when I want to work I just go shut my doorand do my thing....
