5.0 out of 5 stars Love it like my ipod., December 16, 2006

By	W. ALLEN "overeducated and under-learned" (Pasadena, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Uniden got the electronics and features nearly perfect on the prior models. Then this model also perfects the ergonomics in the same way Apple did with the ipod and computer. The phone not only functions excellently, it feels good in your hand and against your ear. The buttons have the reassuring feedback similar to an HP calculator. My wife is very picky and finally agrees with her husband (rare indeed) that his phone sounds, looks, feels and works great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Records a message every time someone hangs up, July 9, 2007

By	Becki Robins "Mother of Three" (Grass Valley, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I liked a lot of things about this phone, but I returned it for one reason: we get a lot of marketing calls so we screen all of our phone calls. This machine records a message every time someone calls, regardless of whether or not they leave a message. When I get home, I don't want to see my machine flashing 18 messages and when I check only three of them have actual voices and the rest of them are just dead air. That's really an inconvenience for me and a waste of my time. So, the phone had to go back ... even though I liked everything else about it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very very poor human interface, December 27, 2006

By	Dave of NH (New Hampton, NH United States) - See all my reviews

Bottom line... it seems to me that Uniden rushed this product to market in the US. The prerecorded announcements have a British accent, the times and dates are in European format. I could live with these, but the human interface is not at all intuitive and the instructions are poor. If you doubt me, try to record a personal annoncement (OGM as Uniden calls it) for the answering service. With the instructions in hand, I bet you can't do it the first half dozen tries. The answering service often beeps (continuously) even when the calling party did not leave a message. No caller ID on the answering base, so for convenience a CID unit needs to be added. And the other features are as hard to use. Even adding another party to a conversation is tedious and fails at times. Voice quality; good; range: barely acceptable; battery life seems good. But I'm returning mine.
