Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Perfect for busy households or even a small office, the AT&T 1412 2.4 GHz cordless phone offers a generous array of features at a reasonable price. Featuring two-line operation, including two-line caller ID/call waiting capability, the phone also has a line-in-use indicator and two-line dialing (when a call is being taken on the handset, you can still call out on the other line using the base duplex speakerphone). Distinctive ringing and selectable voice message waiting indicators also support each line.

Both the base and handset keypads offer volume control plus redial, hold, and mute buttons. The handset also features a three-line backlit LCD for caller ID information, which stores up to 90 names and numbers. You can use the base and handset separately as an intercom or paging system, and you can transfer calls between the two. The handset is headset compatible, and the base offers a data port connection for a separate computer modem or fax machine. The phone is desk or wall mountable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good phone with unique feature combinations, September 30, 2004

By	KTJ7 "ktj7" (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews

There may be better cordless phones but this had the right combo of required features that were hard to match in other products - it supports 2 lines, caller ID, has an alert light for phone company voicemail, had a keypad on both the base and the handset, speakerphone, etc. Also, it uses 2.4Ghz channel 1 and to date it hasn't conflicted with my two 802.11 Wi-Fi network access points running on channels 6 and 11.

The main annoyance so far is a loud clicking sound on the handset earpiece when a call comes in on the other line, even with the alternate line ringer turned off. If you get freequent calls on a secondary line that might be a consideration.

5.0 out of 5 stars great phone, April 5, 2005

By	Deborah MacGillivray "Author," (US & UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I had a simpler AT&T wireless phone. The phone was good, but the battery started not holding a charge long and it was cheaper to buy another phone than replace the battery, so I went phone looking. This one is really a great one, with a lot of features that you generally see in phones that cost twice this.

What I really like about it: Two lines. Each lines are clearly displayed with their own settings. You can control the ringer on the be base and the phone itself. You can have the base ring - or not - as each line has its own high, medium and off switch. Have one right and not the other. Turn both off. The same option with the handset. Each line can ring on the handset or not. Have 1 ring and 2 off. This is handy for Fax set ups.

The programing is simple. You want a distinct ring for each line, then you click it that line, punch 1,2,3,4 on the number pad and it will change the tone. Click select and you are ready. This is handy with two lines - you can have a separate ring for each. The button for each is clearly set on the handset. 1 and 2 buttons that are dial tone buttons. The volume for the handset it on the side. You don't have to change that in menu like I've always done on other wireless. So you can change this in the middle of the call without peeping in the callers ear!

It has mute controls for the base and the handset - for both lines again. Speaker-phone on the base. So if the handset is left at the other end of the house you can still take calls from the base. Hold, line-in-use indicator, a data port, intercom, pager, base-dialling and 2.4 GHz make this one sound like the caller is in the other room. 50 name in directory. The handset it nice and "solid". Read out for caller ID easy to read for this baby boomer.

So for the price you really cannot beat this one!

2.0 out of 5 stars A good phone is hard to find, September 1, 2004

By	M. Vaughn "M. Vaughn" (So. California, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I spend around 90 bucks for this phone at staples for my small home based business. At first it seems to have a lot of neat features but falls short when it comes to call quality. I have friends with $15 v-tech phones that sound better than this! There is static on the line and the tones for the buttons are so loud they'll blow your eardrums out while the voice tones stay too quite to hear. They are both on the same speaker so you can't adjust them independently. I suggest AT&T go back to the drawing board on this one. If I was going to spend $70-$90 on a phone again I would definately not buy this one. I think I will have to resort to buying a much more expensive phone to get the quality needed for a business phone although I've heard that even at $500 there's a lack of call quality. I may be switching to a VOIP system anyway so maybe I'll have better luck in that market.
