Summary: No noise, nice design, wonderful speaker
Review: When my V-tech needed another battery I decided it was time to jump to the next level. 5.8 gig would certainly not interfer with my wireless network, and it had a built in speaker phone.Speaker phone was something I wanted. Those endless hours waiting to speak to a human. Plus you can use it between hand sets. . .nice feature; works well. Both on the base unit and the phone itself. Phone feels good and sounds good. Have yet to have the battery lose charge. (Got used to having a backup battery on old 2.4 gig phones. This one seems longer lasting.) Caller ID is on each handset and the base unit. And it's simple to manage. Someone actually thought out the programing of the software. Four button pushes and all old numbers are gone. Two and a number is saved. Hit one, CID, and phone on and you're dialing a long distance number. There is one weird thing. When an extension is in use there is a blue light which spreads in concentric circles from the speaker on the base unit. Kind of different, I guess. When it first happened I thought some alarm had gone off. But I've gotten used to it. The base sits next to the computer, so I don't really have to search for the handset if I get a call. One button operations of speaker phone, with sound controls. Buy it, you'll like it.

Summary: excellent phone, except for one fatal flaw:
Review: When you scroll through the numbers in the caller ID and press "phone" to dial a number, THIS PHONE WILL NEVER INCLUDE A NUMERAL 1 AND WILL NEVER DIAL A STORED NUMBER. As for everything else: peachy. Go to.. or anywhere they sell house-phones and you'll see an endless heap of crappy products. If you want a nice phone, you've got to look further and the Motorola is a nice alternative. The other reviewers have plenty to say about features, so I'll just leave it at that. The wall mount is EXCELLENT, handset speakerphone is very usable, and vibrating handset also nice. Don't forget about the pretty blue lights.
