Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Ever feel like you need a second phone? The KX-TG2344B from Panasonic may be the solution, since it's packaged with a second handset and charging cradle. It also comes with a built-in answering system, helping you to consolidate all your communications needs in one easy-to-use machine.

The all-digital answering machine has a 15-minute maximum recording time and can be operated remotely, allowing you to stay on top of your incoming messages even while you are away from home. You can set the outgoing message length to one, two, or three minutes, while voice prompts guide you through operation of the answering system. An LCD call counter lets you know how many messages you have waiting, and a time/date stamp lets you know when each message was received. Additionally, all messages are stored in Flash memory, so if you ever experience a power outage, your messages will be there when you get back up and running.

Caller ID and call waiting compatible, the KX-TG2344B stores up to 30 incoming names and numbers. The log is easily accessible via the handset LCD, while a 32-number phone directory helps you to keep track of all your most frequently used phone numbers. A new message indicator lets you know when you have messages waiting, while a low-battery indicator lets you know when to return the phone to its cradle for recharging.

If you are running short on countertop space, fret not, the KX-TG2344B is wall-mountable. Handset and ringer controls allow you to adjust volume levels to your liking, while an illuminated keypad makes dialing a snap, even in the dark. Headset compatible for hands-free communication, this phone also comes with a belt clip. A page/handset locator lets you easily find a lost handset, and voice paging from the base allows you to communicate with both handsets at the same time. An intercom function lets you talk between handsets or between a handset and the base, while three-way conferencing allows you to communicate with multiple parties at once.

By transmitting on the 2.4 GHz band and utilizing a digital spread spectrum signal and Panasonic's voice enhancer technology, this phone is able to offer clearer reception and greater range than many older cordless phones. Easy-to-use and packed with useful features, the KX-TG2344B also comes backed with a one year limited warranty.

What's in the Box
Base, two handsets, two AC adapters/chargers, two rechargeable battery packs, two belt clips, two handset battery covers, one telephone line cord, instructions

5.0 out of 5 stars Great phone, October 7, 2004
By 
Steve M (Visalia, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG2344B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Office Product)
This is a very nice phone. Excellent range and very clear. Havent had a good one like this in a long time. Usually bought Uniden but my last few didnt last long and was always having clarity problems. Anyway, this Panasonic phone is wonderful. Its easy to use and set up. Having two cordless headsets is great. In my bedroom I dont have a phone jack and this setup is perfect for my situation. I can now leave my one phone in my computer room and have the other in my bedroom. No more dragging around the cordless phone. Thanks Panasonic for making a great product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice phone, but why limit the available memory?, September 27, 2004

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG2344B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Office Product)
I bought this phone to replace an older 900MHz Panasonic cordless phone. Since this 2.4GHz phone is newer I was expecting a lot more features to be available on it. For one thing, I didn't expect this newer phone to have a much shorter limit on how many phone numbers it can store. With the older phone I never had a problem reaching a limit. With the new phone, while manually entering the numbers, I realized the memory is limited to 30 numbers. What a pain! With the price of memory being so cheap these days, why limit the numbers you can store on a handset?

Another issue is the whole transfer of your phone book from one phone to another. Panasonic offers such a service through a so-called Caller IQ technology, which uses a third-party company. This company charges some really outrageous fees, and has a poor privacy policy. The Caller IQ protocol is not described anywhere, and as a result there are no other companies or open source implementations for this capability. I think this situation is not good for Panasonic, so why did they choose to go into such an arrangement?

I'm very dissappointed I don't see much improvements in the usability and interoperability with today's increasingly connected set of devices. Maybe the whole business is so low margin, manufacturers don't want to spend money of R&D for newer features. This situation seems to be common with all the other manufacturers too :(

Otherwise this phone has great reception and features. I have a wireless 802.11b network operating at the same frequency with this phone, and I haven't noticed any problems in reception. The ability to have two people talking on the handsets with a remote person is also great, and there are no noticeable sound deterioration or echoes as with two separate 900MHz phones. If you're looking for a decent phone with answering machine capabilities, and can live with the arbitrary limit of 30 numbers in the phone book, you should consider this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely recommend!, June 20, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG2344B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Office Product)
If you are looking for a good bang for your buck, this is it. Great clarity, sturdy phone and Panasonic reliability. I have dropped it a few times, and phone still works fine. The handset speakerphones are very clear, and the phone has a very legible display. The lighted keypad is a plus. This phone is a great alternative as compared to the almost twice as expensive 5.8 GZ phones.

The only minus is that there is no speakerphone on the base unit, which is why I gave it 4 stars out of five.
