Great Phone

 

This phone works great in locations that you cannot get it hard wired. The only think you have to remember to plug it back in so that it is charged the next time you use it. Excellent sound quality and range.

This is a great speakerphone that can be carried into multiple conference rooms or offices. Great range. Excellent quality. Excellent utility. Only down side is that I wish it came with the larger battery.
