4 out of 5 stars Can't program 1010811+area code +7 digit phone numbers   December 24, 1999

Phone has everything I have been looking for but I can't program 1010811 numbers. The phone accepts only 16 digits. I had this problem before with an old Panasonic which only took 16. I bought a new Panasonic this year and it takes 22 numbers. I believe the 16 numbers is old technology and an oversight by Sony. I am sure it would not be a problem to change this.

I look forward to hearing from SONY.

Again, I think it is a great product but I have to return it because I have too many phone numbers to enter and I can't be dialing them everytime I want to use them.

Thanks AMAZON for your courteous response and help with my return.


3 out of 5 stars miscellaneous ramblings redux   January 11, 2000

Excellent sound quality and features. However, the ergonomics, and useability of some features are poor compared with the Sony SPP-ID975. For example: the 975 is more comfortable to hold against my ear; this phone does not have a backlit LCD panel in the handset - the 975 does; this phone uses a plug in battery where the 975 uses a drop in battery; this phone does not accomodate a spare battery in a base unit charger - the 975 does; this phone's base unit uses a side mounted slide control for speakerphone volume where the 975 uses a keypad mounted digital volume control. Overall, it's a choice between form and function, I chose function. Now if Sony could take the technology from the this phone and put it in the ID975 package, they would have the best phone in class.


2 out of 5 stars Do not love this phone!   November 29, 1999

This phone has lots of nifty features but the speaker system is lousy. It cuts out during use both when speaking and when listening to voice-mail messages. By the time you grab up the handset you have missed a lot. I would not recommend this product to anyone who is a frequent speaker-phone user.


1 out of 5 stars Sony has lost their touch   May 16, 2000

I have been a LONG time religious purchaser of SONY phones and stereo components, and I'm sorry to say that I will no longer purchase SONY phones. This phone has given me continous problems since week 3. The signal kicks out, even in the same room as the base set, you can hear it changing channels (and it cuts off reception while doing so). I returned it twice and had the same problems with the new phones. I just replaced it with the Siemen's 2.4gig. All in all, you can get MUCH better phones for the money. NOTE** My Sony 900MHz from 3 years ago is still running strong, but these new ones are just horrible.


4 out of 5 stars Not enough notification before the battery goes dead.   November 10, 1999

When the battery runs out, the phone beeps three times and you get about three to five seconds to scramble to another phone before you are disconnected. Other than that, the phone is great.


We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
