Customer Review: Fantastic Phone!
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally bought this phone for a single feature - it is one of very few phones on the market which has a mute button on the handset. I work from home and frequently have conference calls where I want the freedom to walk around the house and listen to the call - but do not want the other callers to hear. All phones offer the headset jack - but most other phones only offer a hold button where you can no longer hear the call. Once I got the phone home and installed, I discovered some of the many other great features - a fully functional speaker phone built into the handset. It does not just play the sounds loudly out of the ear piece - but rather has an additional speaker on the back of the phone for clear reception without feedback on the front microphone.
There is a one-touch voice mail button on the base unit which is programmable to dial whatever number you need - be it an 800 number or just *98.
Additionally it interprets the caller ID name and actually pronounces it in a rather clear voice. I'm sure you could turn this off - but it is a nice feature as I no longer have to look at the screen to see who is calling. The screen has multi-lines and is clear. Another nice feature is a battery charge indicator on the handset screen.
Only possible down side is that the handset is a little large - with a two inch hard antenna protruding from the top. But this is rather common on the 2.4 GHz phones.
It supports a standard called Caller IQ which you can read about at http://www.openlcr.com/ - it's a nice information service - but there is a nominal monthly fee if you do not let them become your long distance carrier. This feature is completely optional.
In general I am very pleased with this phone for the price and functionality.

Description of Panasonic KX-TG2238S 2.4 GHz Digital Cordless Phone with Talking Caller ID and Dual Keypads
Talking Caller ID Call Waiting Caller ID Caller IQ compatible Dual digital duplex speakerphones 30 station Caller ID memory and dialer Backlit 3 line LCD display on handset Voice enhancer technology 50 station phone directoOffering a range of exciting features, including 2.4 GHz digital operation, the Panasonic KX-TG2238 connects you to the outside world with a consistently clear channel and plenty of room to roam. Special Voice Enhancer technology simulates additional bandwidth, allowing human voices to sound much more like they do in person than what we generally hear over the phone.
A three-line backlit LCD on both the handset and the base supply access to caller ID information (with subscription to the service via your telephone company). The names and numbers of up to 30 callers will be displayed, along with the date and time of the call. Additionally, this model is equipped for Talking Caller ID, which verbally announces who's on the line before you've even left the couch. And don't worry about missing your mew messages--both a visual announce light and an audible "stutter" will let you know when your voicemail has new information. Panasonic includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.
