Very much as above anyone know of a VoIP handset portable cordless

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.

One option would be to use a DECT VoIP handset and base unit together
with a WiFi client. The WiFi client would be connected to the base unit
with an ethernet cable. DECT usually has much better range than WiFi
and is better at working around interference as it has dynamic frequency
hopping.

We'd certainly miss the intercom & call-transfer facilities on DECT
phones. Can they be replicated using wifi on PAYG Smart phones?

Yep,. some of the voip clients can do that stuff.
