Thanks, I actually need a new phone. Now I'll be able to toss out this old clunker I have kicking around from way back. [img]http://**************/img/1856/y08m1110mhmd/2.gif[/img]

This is a great deal....came out during boxing day.
Panasonic phones are fantastic...and at this price I had to grab them.
Speakerphone function on all handsets.
Everyone can pick up a handset and talk at the same time, no need to "transfer" calls from one handset to another.
Unified options...ie. change the date on one handset, and it get propagated to the other phones....
Excellent clarity and volume!

I really like the Night Mode feature, where you can turn off the ringer during certain hours of the day (i.e. sleepy time). The shared phone book feature is also cool.
I'm mostly glad to finally get a good Panasonic phone. I had one ages ago that worked great until I dropped it 15 feet onto a tile floor. Since then I haven't had any luck with Panasonic phones wrt sound quality, but this one seems to be a keeper.

Granted it's not a DECT phone, but unless you live in a mansion or have many other devices operating at 5.8Ghz, this is a good package for the price. I have a wireless network in my home and haven't had any problems so far.

Considering a 3 handset Panasonic Dect6 is cheapest what? around $100?
Furthermore, unless you're really having serious reception issues due to conflicting electronics or you're really anal about security, then Dect6 isn't that much better either.
Marketing will always come up with something "newer and better" for people to upgrade.

Yeah and don't forget about potential health issues with DECT phones. Don't ask me if it's true or not, I am not a doctor, but why take the risk.
I bought this exact package from the source for 90$
I could have returned it (less than 30 days), unfortunately, there are no LD in eastern provinces, oh well.

argh @#%$
I feel dumb now, I bought this from The Source for a little over a bill for my sister.
Got a panny from Staples plus coupons before they quickly got SOLD OUT, working well, and they didn't have DECT 6.0, sounds like some mosquito spray... :P
Site shows Sold out!

The way I see it, go big or don't go at all.
$60 is still $60. I'd gladly pay 40% more to get a much better phone.

This phone is TERRIBLE!
I bought it on Boxing Day and returned it a day later. There is a huge amount of background hiss to the point where it significantly impedes hearing the other person. I tried it on two phone lines, one of which was analog and the other VoIP. Same problem on both.

time for a dect 6.
I've had a lot of problems with 5.4ghz phones and as good as most panasonic phones are, they provide their share of static. Dect 6 or bust baby!

Bought the KXTG9333T Dect 6.0 from Sears last month for $80. Regular price was $149 on sale for $99 less $20 off coupon ( > $100 ). Used a filler item to put it over $100, socks for $2.
So far I'm not overly impressed with the phone, when I have an incoming call one of the unit's screen shuts off when it rings. Also if I want to make a call I press speaker phone on the unit and same thing the unit shuts off. I think I may return them if the problem doesn't go away. I had to lower the volume on the units because I seemed to be getting an echo whenever I was on the phone speaking in a certain location of the house. Also if I remove the Ni-MH batteries from the phone even with a full charge, the battery level shows empty and it wants me to charge it for 7 hours and it starts to annoyingly repeat this.
On the positive side, last night I was using the phone outside and there was zero interference and sounded the same as if I was inside the home.
My old phones were also Panasonic but 5.8ghz and Ni Cd batteries gave us many years of trouble free service, should have just bought new batteries for them instead
