CNET Review
The Good: Transmits on the 5.8GHz frequency; supports up to five additional handsets; integrated digital answering machine; speakerphone in both base and headset; excellent audio.
The Bad: Second handset not included in package; must program each handset individually; skimpy phone-book storage; headset sold separately.
The Bottom Line: Wi-Fi-friendly and flexible, this 5.8GHz model offers pristine audio and outstanding features at a great price.
Manufacturer: AT&T
