[Electronics-talk] [EXTERNAL]Re: cordless phones etc.

[Drew Hunthausen]

I just got a new cordless phone as the Panasonic one I had no longer held a
charge even after getting a new battery. I don't have the info on my new
phone right now, but the way the caller i.d. works is that the phone will
ring one very loudly and then the caller i.d. is announce in a slow clear
male voice. During this time the volume on the ring is dimished. After the
number is announced the phone rings once more very loudly. This can probably
also be changed if you want the phone to ring more than four times.

I once spoke from someone from Panasonic who said that there is not enough
time between rings to recite the telephone number. The boxes can do this
because they are independent from the telephone.

Honestly, if you ask my opinion, which I know you didn't:)

If you get a caller I.D. that says the phone numbers, or have one already,
what's the point in spending the money on the Panasonic ones that slaughter
the namesand don't give you the phone numbers.

I'd do it if the menu options spoke as well, but that isn't the case so I
refuse to spend that much money or effort to find a specific brand when it
doesn't really have accessible features all the way through.

Brad and I have a separate caller I.D. and when our chord less dies, which
is a Panasonic I can garontee I'm not gonna let him or myself break our
necks to get another one.

I had an AT&T one back in the day that sound quality wise kicked the
Panasonic ones out of the water by a long shot.

JMO,
