Did I mention that the one which works, has a battery that lasts for about 1 minute if on speaker phone? 'Tis true.
Get it while you still can. I recently upgraded to a cheaper AT&T corded phone with caller ID, dig. answering machine, etc. and I'm loving it. I cannot believe I paid $120 for the piece of crap Vtech phones.
I knew that Sears.com would have a corded phone which wouldn't have batteries to go bad on me.
I am gonna have to "buy" that phone from you just for making me laugh so hard.
