Summary: Don't even bother!!!
Review: I purchased this phone and had no problems for a few months - aside from the fact that you have to reset the phone message everytime the power goes out. However, at one point, I went to answer my phone and got shocked! Blew out the phone completely! I figured that this phone was flawed, and took it back for an exchange - same phone, same problems. And again, I went to answer the phone and got yet another shock, and blew out the phone!! This phone has serious flaws and should not even be stocked!!!

Review: let them keep their callkeeper. in a word, it "sucks." i attempted to make a call using the attached so-called phone. the person i was speaking to asked if i was in a wind tunnel and i had to instantly switch to my cordless (2.4 gz). as bad as the phone is, the fidelity of the tapeless answering machine is worse. its only virtue is its compact size, yet considering it's as functional as a giant dead battery, size counts for naught.

Review: This phone was given to me as a gift. It seemed to work ok for a while. Functionality is good, even though the sound on the outgoing and incoming messages is surprisingly fuzzy for a digital machine. But after only about a month of use, the receiver has a lot of static. The person on the other end of the phone cannot hear it, but it makes it very difficult to hear anything. Also, there were a lot of complaints from the people I was talking to that they had a hard time hearing me even though I would be talking in a normal tone of voice. This was even before the static problem started. Basically the phone portion is now useless, and I'm shopping for a new phone/answering machine. So, don't think this product is all that worth it unless you don't use this phone except for the answering machine.
