Now that is very spesific :-P

I think it all depends on what you want to do...  the asterix guys would
know more about ip phones...

Then the vodafone android phones are also rather nice and cheap...

If you want to go much cheaper I think some stores have cellphones from
R29... though not much to do there...

So in the end all. Depens with how much you are willing to spend an what
you want to play with... some phones might also be able to run Ubuntu
though you would have to research on which and how all getting to be a lot
of fun.:-D
