Hmmmmm, there's 2 recommendations for the same phone. I've never heard of VTech though. (The name just sounds like a cheaply made phone.) What's the ballpark price and what kind of store do I need to venture to check it out?

VTech is the cordless phone we at at the United Artists Greenwood Plaza 12 Movie Theater Complex Projection Booth in Englewood, Colorado, and it worked alright. Once you got to the very end of the projection booth and stepped outside (maybe 150 feet away from the base?) it would begin to break up, especially if the projectors were running.

I have a V-Tech 2.4 and an IBM 2.4 at home. They are both great phones with good range but I like the IBM 2.4 better because it has a better volume booster, its a little more clear (not saying the V-Tech is bad), has a little (very little) better amount of range to it, and its a little more heavy set and feels more comfortable.

Brad,

I got mine at CostCo. It came in a bundle w/ 2 handsets, the extra charging base, and the main base with a digital answering maching for $150. I've seen them at Best Buy and Circuit City for $160 for just the one handset and answering machine base. They also have a non-answering version, but i'm not sure on cost.
