RE: DECT phones with central phonebook

["Stephen Jones" <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul

I had a look a couple of months ago and settled for the BT 53** range.
It was seen as the replacement for the 40** range but it doesn't have
all the features of the old 40** range! The one main feature it doesn't
have is a shared directory or the ability to transfer directorys.

At the time I looked there was a newer range (54**) which wasn't out
yet. But checking (www.telephones-online.co.uk) it looks to be available
now.

It's listed as having -

"Directory transfer between handsets."
"Up to 200 name and number directory"
"Illuminated display" (another useful feature the older models
should
have IMO)

It seems to be the first BT DECT phone which at last is becoming more
like a mobile phone.

But I still haven't heard of a DECT phone which can share your contact
list from the PC :-(

Subject: [ukha_d] DECT phones with central phonebook

There was a bit of talk a while back about DECT phones with centrally
held phonebook (not just the ability to copy phonebooks between
handsets) - did anyone find one?

Even better would be the ability to transfer a phonebook from a PC -
can't believe nothing like this exists in this age of technology :-(
