Summary: i hate this phone
Review: i purchased for the sole reason that the transponder and charge base were seperate- because i only had one jack in my bedroom but needed two. In any case this phone [was bad] from the start - it didn't put together right- so i would just have to leave the battery hanging- it would never properley charge becuase of this. Even when the line wasn't in use it would say it was- when it did work properly the sound quality was much worse than my cell

i then went and bought a seconf - same problems as the first

Summary: Great Looking design but don't be fooled!
Review: I read some of the negative reviews here before buying this phone. But I'm one of those gotta see for myself people. I really liked the hi-tech design and no one else has anything that looks this good so I bought one anyway, Here is the scoop- this phone has major design problems. First the hard plastic hand piece vibrates when the other party talks which causes distortion (kind of like if you try to talk through a sheet of waxed paper). Second -The ringer on the phone is very "wimpy" it can't be heard in the next room even when set to the highest level. (IBM/TT should have put a ringer in the base set like Sony did) and finally the talk key which answers and hangs up sticks out too far, it will hang up the phone when you are talking if it gets to close to your face! (Why can't any of these companies make a great looking phone that actually works?)

Summary: Needs serious revisions
Review: Please do not waste your money on this phone. Even thought it might look cool it has horrid static 24/7. Sometimes it won't dial and if you are 2 rooms away from the receiver there is no reception. We bought this phone in April and have hated it from the start. The buttons are confusing and it seems no thought was given to the layout. I'm not saying anything aginst IBM I love their computers but this phone stinks. Stay away at all costs.

Summary: Looks great, but doesn't work.
Review: This phone did not work ~40ft away from the base. At less then ~40 ft, it would take several seconds to connect to the base, and, even then, the reception was horrible. Siemens and Panasonic phones I owe, work great.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Does Not WORK!!
Review: This [cut-rate] feeling and looking phone works only about 10% of the time. I'm dead serious. Its a joke. I could have made a better phone in my garage. Buy something else.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Fashionable, not functionable..
Review: Unfortunately, all this phone had was its looks. I really expected something great from a 2.4GHz phone, but it performed worse than both my VTech and Uniden 900MHz phones. The biggest problem was static even when you were close to the base. Maybe it needs antennas to help radiate the signal. Pam Anderson may get along fine on her looks alone, but that is not enough for a cordless phone.
