Save valuable desktop space with the IBM ultracompact cordless phone. It combines 900 MHz technology, hands-free operation, and many popular features-- all in one compact design. The handset measures only 4 by 2.25 by 1 inches.
To set up the phone, we installed the batteries, plugged in the AC power, and connected the phone to the phone jack. The handset is about the size of a pager and includes a detachable belt clip for easy transport. The base is almost as small, making it great for desks with limited space. The LCD shows the time and the number you are dialing. Icons on the LCD indicate the status for functions such as the alarm, pager, battery, and signal strength. The handset can be positioned faceup on the base for convenient LCD viewing.
A single function button operates many features, such as time set, memory dialing, and ringer adjust. Up to 10 numbers can be stored in memory. Press the function button until the memory icon appears in the LCD window. Choose a number between 0 and 10, dial the number you wish to store, and press the function button again to save. To dial a saved number, press the function button and then the designated memory number.
We found the alarm function to be a unique and useful feature. To set the alarm, press the function button and then the 2 button. Enter the time you want the alarm to sound and then press the function button to save. To turn the alarm on, press the function button and then the 3 button. The alarm icon will appear in the LCD and a beep confirms the alarm has been activated. Following these same steps will also turn the alarm off.
In our tests of the IBM ultracompact phone, we were able to use the handset up to 200 feet from the base. Between 200 and 500 feet, static became disruptive, but we were still able to maintain a conversation without losing transmission. For hands-free calling, a headset is included. Voice quality on the headset was clear and sensitive, picking up sounds such as breathing, which we found slightly annoying. Although the fit of the headset is somewhat limited, its cushioned earpad and adjustable microphone are comfortable. --Emily Bakko
