In a few years time, maybe, but at the moment most phones are just that,
phones and you need a little dongle supplied by the voip company.

No you don’t with what you call a dongle.

Some Voip companies may well sell you a telephone like you need but I'm
not sure they can work universally, ie not tied to a provider.

There are plenty of voip phones sold by operations
like Siemens, but not many that connect using wifi.

But almost all mobile phones will do voip over wifi.

Very much as above anyone know of a VoIP handset portable cordless phone
that has a base unit it charges from BUT the connection to the Internet
is by wireless wi-fi rather then wired i.e. plugging into a router?.

Or come to that one that connects directly to the net by your home
wi-fi?.

Any info appreciated.
