Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Vtech IS6110 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone with Instant Messaging Capability is the first cordless phone to offer a QWERTY keyboard, along with IM and instant voice (peer-to-peer) features. It has an extra-large color LCD for easy viewing, making it easy to read and write IMs. The phone includes built-in service for AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), MSN, and Windows Live programs. Employing a click-to-talk system, you can send and receive IM voice chats with online buddies. To set up the phone, you simply connect it to a landline outlet and to a PC via the included USB cord. Using the phone for instant messaging applications frees the computer for other uses.

The phone itself features DECT 6.0 technology for superior sound quality, security, and range. A Speakerphone is built into the handset for convenience, and the phone has memory for 50 phonebook entries. It supports caller ID and call waiting, and stores the last 50 calls. The phone has multiple ringtones and will record your own sound clips directly from a PC or any type of sound equipment.

5.0 out of 5 stars VTech IS6610 Is Amazing, Worth Every Penny..., August 27, 2008

This review is from: Vtech IS6110 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone with Instant Messaging Capability (Office Product)

Ok, when I first got this everything pretty much was straight forward. Install the software, plug in the stuff, and a few other simple things. One thing I wish I would've known was my computer can't be signed on to messenger if I want to use it on the phone. One thing I really liked about the phone was the keypad, it was very simple and the buttons were comfortable, but still something to get used to. One other great thing is the talk option of when you're on AIM. Other than the part where the computer has to be signed off in order for it to work on the phone, this is all in all a great product.

3.0 out of 5 stars Texting Capable land line!, December 1, 2009

I purchased this on a whim for my home office. While it has nice texting capabilities, it does not produce the best sound quality for calls. I have used this with and without a headset. Don't bother using a headset with it, unless you have no qualms about hearing "huh" repeatedly! Terrible sound quality. Overpriced for the quality. Texting from land line is nice while I'm working on the computer for my corporation, but other than that, I would only purchase this for a cool gadget you can tell others "hey, look...this is a land line, it looks like a cell phone and you can actually text from it..." nice conversation piece, but other than that...save your money.

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs to fix the texting part of the phone!!!, November 15, 2009

The phone sounds great but as far as the texting is not good. I use MSN only but you have to download both MSN and AIM which I think for me is too much. My computer when I turn it on everything comes up on the start menu and it's annoying. I try to remove it from the start menu but no luck... So I don't text, which that suck!!!! The phone part is not bad, feels like a toy phone but it does sound clear and it saves your number's on to the phone which I kinda like. Makes it easy to dial. All and all it's okay. Just wish the texting would have worked for me!!!
