[Electronics-talk] a high-quality cordless phone

[Steve Jacobson]

Sherri,

We have had a Panasonic cordless phone for several years and have been happy with the performance.  We actually use 5 handsets on it.  It has talking 
caller-id built-in as well, and some functions talk but the menus themselves are not accessible.  They are not perfect, but seem to be pretty good phones.  
I do not have the exact model handy, but the odds are that the model has changed anyway, and when I was looking they had a huge number of models 
that basically had the same features but were different colors and included different numbers of handsets.  One feature that this system has that I had not 
even looked for is that if the power goes out, the base is automatically powered by the batteries in the handset that is sitting in the base.  This means I 
don't have to dig out an old phone whenever the power goes out.  There may be other kinds of battery backups now, though, but this is handy.  

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
