Cell Detecting Cordless Handset?
« on: October 14, 2012, 11:19:36 AM »
Anyone have one of these? I didn't even know they exist - I just saw this one pop up on the Amazon deal of the day today and am curious. I gave up my landline a couple of years ago but sometimes miss a conventional handset with real buttons and stuff. Plus no matter what they say about safety, I always worry when my cell is next to my ear for longer periods.

These also appear to be able to link multiple cell phones, which would be a plus for me since I carry three stinking cell phones. Being able to have them autolink to one of these when I walk through the door would make life easier - if they work reliably.

thanks!  getting one for dad
It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Ben, you might want to look at this one too.  It'll handle 4 cell phones.  You can also expand it up to 12 handsets.

For a more low tech (and yet cool) solution to not holding your cell phone next to your head:

Thanks DD - I'll check that one out!

Bryan, I've been kinda thinking about one of those to attach to my phone during staff meetings and stuff.  :laugh:
