Summary: Extensis is a great buy for any cell phone user!!!
Review: I bought the Extensis to use in my college dorm because the signal is poor there. Extensis kept my battery charged which improved the signal strength and prevented dropped calls. I am using Extensis with a Motorola V.8162 and it works great. I recommend this device to anyone who uses their cell phone in their house or college dorm.

Summary: EXCELLENT, MARVELOUS, INCREDIBLE, and then, POOF!
Review: I had this unit connected, like a regular incoming telephone company phone line(CO), to my PBX at the office into line #4. So, when I got into the office, I would just set the cell phone into the craddle and anywhere in the building I could just pick up line #4 and I was using my cell phone. When the line rings more than 3 times, the PBX was programmed to transfer line #4 to my assistant who picks up for me, puts them on hold (with music, thanks to the PBX, not Extensis) and pages me in the building so I can pickup line #4 (the cell phone).I use my cell phone for long distance and it gets tiresome to be holding the phone to my ear...plus I've been concerned about holding the phone close to my head all day with all the tumor rumors (I carry a spare High Capacity battery in my pocket, two in total, that's how much I talk). This unit solves most of the problem. Tired of handing the cell phone to others so they can talk to your friends/colleagues? Well, just have them pickup a phone extension and you can both talk at the same time! I tell you, this unit is really great! No matter how happy I was, though, the truth must be told: Don't know what happened, but this unit was working incredibly well...then one day it just...stopped working. It just doesn't seem to recognize the phone any more...tried various Startac units that my friends own (it could have been my phone - I drop it so much) but we determined it's definitely the Andrew Extensis. By the way, while using the Extensis there was no way to drop the phone...at least it was safe while in the craddle. Andrew has done a marvelous job with this unit. I'm in the telecommunications industry, so I know Andrew Corporation very well. Never expected anything less from such an innovative company...however, I'm still trying to figure out how to claim the warranty on it. Better customer service information would be a plus (that goes for Amazon too!). Bottom Line: It worked so well I'm buying another one while I figure out how to claim the warranty...then I'll have one at home and one in the office. Recommendation to Andrew and Amazon: Explain how the unit works more clearly because many people don't understand what it does, so they don't buy it or look for it. Pictures, examples, stories, something!

Summary: Extensis is a definete buy!!!!

Summary: Ingenious device
Review: I just completed the installation of the Extensis, the process took less than 10 minutes. My connection, although not illustrated in the instruction book works great!
Using a Siemens cordless system, I connected the Extensis device directly to the line two input of the Siemens system. This configuration allows me to have line 1 connected to the wall jack, line 2 to the Extensis (cell phone) and frees up the(old line 2) wall jack for to my computer and fax.
I will use this for my 2000 week-end minutes. The sound is excellent, no noticeable difference from a land line connection.
Come Monday, I will just re-connect line two to the wall jack!
A must for anyone who wants to expand the capabilities of cellular with the convenience of multiple cordless phones already installed throughout one's home.

Summary: Good Product, Great Amazon Service
Review: I saw similar product from another company but I bought this product because of the Andrew brand; plus this device is better looking than the other one =) When I got my unit, I connected my regular phone on line 1. Called up a friend of mine and after 12 minutes, I would hear annoying tones. We hang up and called again. After 3 minutes on the phone, the annoying tones were back. Hang up and called again and still got those annoying tones after 3 minutes. I contacted Amazon's customer service and requested a replacement unit. Amazon shipped the new unit express. I connected the new unit and it worked perfect. I made a 30min call and the sound is clear. No more annoying tones. It would be great if caller ID is passed by this device. I left one star because product documentation is poor. They could have done it better by using detailed drawings for the line connection.

Summary: STICK IT TO THE MAN (MA BELL)!
Review: I was tired of paying Qwest for all the special features to avoid phone calls -- caller id, call curfew, no soliciation, etc. Between home phone and cell phones, my wife and I were paying $90 a month. We have dropped the home phone now and only pay $50. This thing works perfectly as designed. If they made more models that worked with every cell phone, I would give one to everyone in my family and friends for Christmas. People at our house don't even know we cancelled the home phone. My wife and I can be on the phone together calling someone else! The baby sitter had no idea she was calling out via a cell phone when she used to phone in our kitchen! I recommend this to everyone with a cell phone! Cancel your home phone!
