Paul

I recently replaced my Phillips Onis Vox with the new Philips Zenia
Voice.

Pros -
shared telephone list - all Philips Zenia Phones can connect to the
shared phone list
My old dect handsets can connect to make calls and answer calls. They
cannot access the voicemail or shared phonebook. I've now got two new
and two old phones.
Sexy looking base unit - It is standalone - The phones each come with
their own charging units. I've wall mounted my base unit with hidden
power and telephone wires - looks very cool
I bought it because research indicated that the CLI is compatible with
NTL. Pity NTL does not offer the service in my area.
Good battery life

Cons - (But only small ones)
Slighty soft
Response times on keypad is slower than on my older models but I'm
getting used to the interface now

I've not seen one that connects to a PC to download phone book entries
although I believe it is a necessity in this day and age. Surely these
companies should make this available soon?

Can't comment on ISDN, or Comfort

Cheers
