Hello,
After removing our BT Ultimate 106 phone system (http://www.ultimate106.co.=
=3D=0D
uk) we=20
are currently trying out Philips Zenia 200 (6626) phones. They seem great
(=
=3D=0D
after 3=20
weeks usage).

Nice features include Caller ID and Centralised Phonebook (called Shared
Ph=
=3D=0D
onebook)=20
which is stored in the answerphone base. All handsets have built-in
handsfr=

ee and=20
also a earphone socket for cheapo mobile phone style wired headsets.

The answerphone base is also a handsfree phone. All chargers are small

which makes a change from the BT Diverse 4010 base station we had
previousl=

y.

The handsets look rather swish (we have the champagne colour ones with
silv=
=3D=0D
er=20
illuminated keypad) and lightweight too (im my opinion) which helped sell

SWMBO.

I bought them from a seller on ebay.co.uk called "secondtek1" for
=A330 plu=
s =3D=0D
postage=20
for 1 handset and 1 answerphone base. We use one base for multiple
handsets=

(allowing you to use call transfer funstions and shared address book) and
a=

the other bases as spares.

Here is the sellers shop:

He is listing double packs and singles there now.

He is recommended and has always been very helpful. The units are refurbs

fully working and pristine (well, mine were anyway). The box was a bit

and it might need new AA rechargable batteries.

Hope this helps.
Any questions - lemme know!
