Best thing since the invention of the phone.
I got rid of long distance on my home phone because I can call nationwide on my cell phone. Well walking around the house with my cell phone/ear piece was not convenient. I knew there had to be a better way. Well this is it. This phone is awesome. I read up on the technology and I was afraid my cell phone would not work. I have a T-mobile MDA and my husband has the BlackBerry 8000 series. Both phones linked via bluetooth in less than a minute. As long as your bluetooth is 1.1 or higher, t...

Works fine, as described
This home phone does exactly as described. I thought I would have to keep my cell phone closer to the unit, but I keep it up to 15 feet away with out hearing crackling. I have had it for 2 weeks, and I am still trying to figure out all the features. I do like that you can download your own ringtones, but it can only be MIDI files under 10K.
As far as the review complaining on the soft reset, I did see that happen one time on the second day I had the phone, but not since ... and I d...

defective manufactured item
I LOVE the idea of this device, In fact i REALLY want one. I purchased it at Wal-mart. It was defective, took it back, that one was defective, went thru all the in stock units and they all had the SAME defect. I got refund. Thinking that WAL-Mart online would have a different "LOT" number, i ordered it from wal-mart online. I received it yesterday and it also has the same defect.
The problem is this: will not recognize that there are 4 AAA back up batteries in the base unit. Wh...

Be Very Afraid.....
I would rate this zero stars if Amazon allowed that. So the concept of this phone is great. But I am now on my 3rd defective brand new unit, which is completely ridiculous. These people (Thomson) have a serious lemon issue. I've noticed other reviews where people have gotten repeated defective units. So you are taking your chances big time if you buy this phone. You may be one of the lucky few who gets one that actually works. Or you could spend all your time, and your shipping dollars, ret...

4 and 7 don't work. 2 defective units from 2 different dealers.
The IDEA of this phone is great. I am so influenced buy the IDEA that I am waiting for my 3rd replacement. The problem that I was having is that the phone would not recognize the number 4 and 7. It beeps when you push the buttons but will not actually dial them. If you switch pulse dialing it works for some strange reason. Thomson/GE has no idea why or do they care to fix it. Tried two different dealers but had the same problem. Here are the good and bad of this phone system. GOOD; works on...

Neat concept, needs to be tested more
This system has an impressive feature list. With two cell phones and a land line, it's like having a three line phone where you can take advantage of extra cell phone minutes in your plan. Having your cell phones tied into your home phone system means not having to carry your cell phone around all the time or run for it when you hear it ringing across the house. Most of the bluetooth features seemed to work okay. However, I experienced enough bugs to force me to return the system:
1. Th...

Not What they say
We purchased this item for our Rock Texas Hill Country home. It works within a few of the interior rooms but as soon as we walk out the door it begins to get static and if we step off either the front or back porch it no longer gets reception.
The base unit would not register batteries and after a long wait for tech support I found out that there is a known problem with Duracell batteries.
We are returning the units and going back to the old portable phones which work much better at ...

I must be lucky, I got a good one!
OK, I see a lot of bad reviews on here so obviously this product has problems. I'm one of the lucky ones who got a good unit that passed quality control. I, too was attracted by the long list of features, and the ability to pair cell phones.
I must say that my 28128EE2 set is one of the best cordless phones I have ever owned, and I've had them going back to the 49 MHz days where you had to telescope the antenna out 3 feet then put it back in when you were done!
I have a 2...

Great idea/phone, but battery life is horrible
Picked up this phone for Christmas as I really liked the idea/concept of it. It hooks up via Bluetooth to my Apple iPhone just fine and works as advertised as I can receive and make calls through my cell instead of the land line.
My problems with it:
- Battery life: horrible. I had the phone like a month and my primary hand set no longer holds a charge for longer than a day or two
- Ringer cannot be separated for land line and cell: My land line is unlisted and no one has...

Lot of promise - zero satisfaction!
I, too have purchased this phone and have had very bad experiences with it. I have had three problems. First is when I receive a call, when I answer the receiver, but have no sound. Second, is where I make a call, but get no dial tone before the phone dials out. Even though I got no dial tone the call went thru. The strangest problem is when the phone decides to call someone on its own. Being connected thru Bluetooth to my cell phone allows this model to just call someone on its own, then ...
