Panasonic KX-TG5110 5.8 GHz Twin 1-Line Cordless Phone

Pros: Range, Speakerphone, Multiple mailboxes
Cons: None yet!

Got it last week, works great. The speakerphone feature on the handsets is a real plus. I spend a lot of time on hold, and it's great to be able to set the phone down during the wait. Range is good in my house, no dropouts yet. Also nice that it doesn't interfere with the 802.11g 2.4 Ghz wireless computer connection, which is why I got it. The handset volume is adequate, which was my biggest worry after reading other reviews, but I wouldn't recommend this phone if you are at all hard of hearing, or using it in a noisy environment.

Pros: it has good intentions . . .
Cons: Poor design, Terrible power situation

IF the short life/long recharge wasn't enough to drive you insane, then the fact that it starts beeping with about an hour of talk time left would. Every time it beeps to let you know the battery is about to fail (and your phone sucks) it cuts off the sound to you and to your caller making the conversation frustrating to point of postal apocalypse.

Pros: Everything
Cons: Does not associate caller ID with name from phone book

I would echo what other highly positive reviews state, and mention that the complaints about the NiCad battery don't matter - you can buy (about $14.95) an NiMH "Energizer ER-P511" battery (see technuity.com) that is fully compatible with the phone.
