Summary: Excellent Quality product
Review: The product is a great idea that works. There are at least three other manufacturers with similar products, but this is the best one in my opinion. This is the only one that will execute the dial function automatically when you get through entering the phone number. The others require you to press the # button when you're finished. I've tried out two of the others including Cell Socket (which is the second best in my opinion). Also, some of the others do not provide a dial tone. A dial tone is not necessary for most house phones, but I'm told there are a few electronic phones that do require it.

I use this with a cordless phone in my house. My friends cannot even tell that I'm calling over a cell phone. I especially like the ability to use a regular size phone in the home as it's just easier to talk over. It also allows me to keep my regular answering machine connected in the house. I'd rather get my messages off it instead of calling for my messages over the cell phone.

Unfortunately, Andrew has discontinued this product in their lineup. I like it so much that I bought an extra --- just in case. I suspect it will become very hard to get soon. I have disconnected my regular wired service and haven't regretted it once.

Summary: Extensis for Motorola StarTac
Review: This device has allowed us to cancel our second phone line and instead use our cellphones as our second line. We are able to get a dial tone on any of the six second line extensions in our home and both place and receive calls from any of them. We use our new "wireless second line" to make all of our long distance calls through our cell phone. We can plug in either my cellphone or my wife's with whichever phone is plugged in becoming the active second line number. We are saving significantly on our overall phone charges. Installation was very easy (although at first I didn't read all the instructions which guided me how to disconnect our second line from the phone company interface box---a ten second process). Quality was excellent both on incoming and outgoing calls. I called my daughter through an extension and asked her how I sounded without telling her how I was calling. She said "louder and clearer than normal". We live on the fringe of our cell

coverage area so normal cellphone quality can become spotty. The Extensis unit seemed to help perhaps by keeping the phone fully charged during operation. A friend plans on purchasing a unit to replace his multi-line cottage phone and just use his cellphone as his main line there. ALL IN ALL A GREAT DEVICE>
