Lots of features and appears to be a quality phone,

This review is from: Itt 2705 270500-tp2-27s Feature W/ Plan (Electronics)
This is a Cortelco model 2705 (which is the same as a 2700 plus a Plantronics wireless headset interface).
NOTE: The "In" in the product title is for "Interface". It does NOT include the wireless headset shown in the picture. What you get is an additional headset jack which accepts Plantronics wireless headset cords and the cord, no wireless stuff. I would give this phone 5 stars except for 1 problem - when you use the headset, the speaker in the handset is still activated. If someone else is close to the phone, and you have the volume set high, they might be able to overhear both sides of your conversation. If you are on the handset, and switch to the headset w/o putting the handset back in the cradle, this is more pronounced because the cradle is not muffling the handset speaker. I contacted Cortelco and explained the problem to one of their engineers. He called me back the next day and told me that nobody had reported this problem, but that when he checked other model 2705 phones, they all had the same problem. He said that the model 2700 phones would have the same problem, because they use the same pc boards. I purchased this phone because I wanted a 1-line corded phone with a 2.5 mm headset jack and separate speaker/headset buttons. I also wanted a phone which had a handset which would seat properly in the handset cradle. My old phone would not be hungup sometimes when I put the handset down, and would get pulled off-hook easily (though not visibly) when moving it. This resulted in the phone line tied up without my knowing it (the off-hook tone was muffled by the cradle and I couldn't hear it). I looked at a lot of phones (in stores and on-line). None of the combination corded/cordless sets (that I looked at) had headset jacks in the base unit. It seems that there aren't many 1-line corded telephones with 2.5 mm headset jacks. I found a couple of cheaper ones with a headset jack but they appeared to have the same off-hook problem my old phone had. I finally found this model from Cortelco, which looks and feels like a quality phone. It is not made from the light-weight plastic and cheap buttons so common to many phones these days. I've only had it for a couple of weeks, so I can't comment on it's electronic reliability. I am extemely happy with the phone's features. My wife liked it so much, she ordered one the day after I received mine. Even with the problem mentioned above, I prefer this phone over all the others I looked at. When you hang it up, there is no question about whether or not it is on-hook. It is not easy to pull it off-hook with the cord. It can take a 2.5mm, RJ-11, or Plantronics wireless headset plug (3 different jacks). (The 2700 only has the first 2.) It has a speaker phone button and a seperate headset button for going off-hook and on-hook easily with either. There is a 99 number/name directory (aside from the 10 direct select numbers) you can select from for dialing. There is a 99 call Caller ID history you can select from for dialing. If you press redial after you go off-hook, you get the last number called. If you press redial first, you get to select one of the last 10 numbers called to auto-dial. You can pre-dial the number (and see that you've punched it in correctly), then go off-hook to auto-dial. The display is back-lit and tilts up for a easy viewing. You can review all of the features by looking at the Cortelco website 7 Series model 2700 manual I would have bought the 2700 model because I really didn't need the wireless headset port, but this was cheaper for some reason. Shipping was excellent, I ordered the 1st phone on Sunday 9/20/2009 (Amazon/ANTonline), and received it (in Austin, TX) on Tuesday 9/22 using regular UPS Ground. (It came one day earlier than the expected shipping date.) Similarly, my wife's phone was ordered on 9/23 and recv'd on 9/25.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Perfect for subscribers of cable company voice system,
By Barry Svee (Minnetonka, MN USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Itt 2705 270500-tp2-27s Feature W/ Plan (Electronics)
After dumping "the phone company" for Comcast Digital Voice service I wanted to replace my awful telephone w/digital answering system with one that would flash a light when a message was left on my Comcast voice mail and hopefully have a dedicated voice mail button as well. My existing phone would update the LCD display if there was a remote message waiting but it reserved the blinking light for its own message system.
I'm sure there are many phones on the market that offer the same compatibility with Comcast as this phone does (via stutter tone and caller ID/FSK) and also with other service providers but their online marketing didn't give me enough information to know for certain if it would work. After some research I read what I wanted to know and I ordered this phone from Amazon. It's great! - A large red LED flashes on top when there is a message waiting on the remote voice mail system (Comcast via stutter tone) - Press a dedicated voice mail button and it turns on the speaker phone and dials right into the voice mail system (number is programmable) - The Speaker, Headset, Mute, and Hold buttons themselves light up brightly when in use - A large display has big bold digits and is brightly backlit when the phone is is use and also the angle of the display is adjustable - There is a programmable phone directory (I haven't set this up yet) Finally, I also have an older wireless Plantronics headset (CS361N) and the setup works perfectly with this phone. The phone-lifter cable even comes with this phone (it wasn't included with the Plantronics headset). I have it all configured such that if I lift the headset off its charger then the phone is automatically taken off the hook; no sequence of button pressing required to hear a dial tone or to answer a call. As for quality, it's no worse than any other phone out there and is an incredible value when you compare it to more expensive phone, such as ones from Siemens. If you are looking for a phone to use with your cable company's phone service then this is a good choice.

What were the designers thinking?,
This review is from: Itt 2705 270500-tp2-27s Feature W/ Plan (Electronics)
I had this phone for several months before I realized that it had a fatal flaw that makes it useless to me. Its most important feature is that it electronically mates to Plantronics headsets. However, it also broadcasts both sides of your call through the base unit's handset while you are using the headset. Hello? You read that correctly. You can be in another room talking on a wireless headset, and someone can be listening while they are near the phone base. In other words, it acts like a speakerphone broadcasting your call to everyone within earshot. What were they thinking? What the bloody H**L were they thinking? I cannot give Cortelco a grade higher than F quadruple minus on this one. If the manufacturer would modify his product to remove or turn off this dubious "feature", it would be a halfway decent phone. Call quality is not superb, but not bad either. The controls are arranged in some quirky ways and are overly complex, but a user can get used to it. The durability and quality is better than residential phone, but less than a typical major brand commercial unit. But letting others listen to your call? What were they thinking?
