Description:
Why clutter your desk with a telephone and an answering system when you can have both in one package? The AT&T 1817 provides an all-digital answering system with time/day stamp and remote control features to make checking your messages easy whether you're at home or on the road. You control the 1817 with its 13 front-mounted buttons and three switches. There is also a single-character LED display and one LED status indicator. The slim handset is comfortable and easy to hold; the buttons are well positioned and accessible, and the feature set is ideally suited for remote operation of the answering system. We had to consult the instructions to set the clock, the number of rings, the remote access code, and the outgoing message (which was cumbersome even with the instructions). Note that the instructions don't explain how to reset the machine to its original preprogrammed outgoing message, but we found it after lengthy trial and error. We were able to program the memory dialing intuitively. Pros
