This review is from: Olympia Tango OL2430OR 2.4 GHz Analog Cordless Phone with Caller ID (Orange) (Office Product)

The sound on this phone is poor and the clock cannot be set. The lights are neat but do not buy if you want a quality sound!

2.0 out of 5 stars You cannot set the clock!!!, April 24, 2005

This review is from: Olympia Tango OL2430OR 2.4 GHz Analog Cordless Phone with Caller ID (Orange) (Office Product)

This phone is cheap....the sound quality matches (which I can live with). What I couldn't deal with was that they include a clock that the user CAN NOT SET. Nowhere in the manual does it give instructions for setting the clock (although you can set the language, area code, ringer, and blinky lights). Turns out...the undocumented "feature" is that you have to wait for a callerID call to come in...and then the clock is supposed to set. Guess what....doesn't work. So..it's a cheap phone with cool blinky lights that never has the right time set.
