Advantages: Head set compatible & handsfree Disadvantages: Needs 2 batteries and when these are running down the clarity is reduced
I use my BTConverse 1200 everyday when working as I work from home and needed a phone I could plug a head set in to. I make full use of the ten number memory feature, where I have stored the numbers for work.
I have the Slate Grey version of the BTConverse, I chose this one because it fits in perfectly with my home office colour scheme. Unlike with others on the review list mine does have a handsfree feature. There is a split button on the phone, one for handsfree and the other for head set; this may have been added as an update, also a redial button which can be very useful and a secrecy button for muting the phone while talking to someone; this is very useful if I am talking to a client and cough or sneeze ha ha.
The hand set itself is very comfortable to use and unlike some phones I have had in the past the wire to the telephone ...
Advantages: The 'mobile' earpiece is excellent Disadvantages: I have used it with some (though not wonderful) success with a BUSH homephone speaker telephone
Further to my earlier opinion posted on the Converse 300 regarding hearing impaired users.
I decided to get rid of the broken Converse 300 phones I had hanging around the house. I gave them to a mate because his disabled son dismantles things as it is theraputic for his fingers.
By accident, my friend discovered it was possible to take bits from the broken phones and make an adapter. This adapter now allows me to use a second earpiece with any hearing aid compatible telephone, provided it has a socketed handset and volume control. Effectively I have a 'mobile' second earpiece!
I now feel that all these years I have been ripped off financially by having to pay way over the odds because of my hearing loss. Also, I have been unnecessarily restricted in the choice of telephone I can use.
I am now on the lookout for a novelty ...

Advantages: Range of features- sturdy Disadvantages: Price
The Converse 300 phone is one of the larger BT pieces of corded hardware currently on the market. Pitched somewhere between residential gasbags, and small businesses the phone offers a relatively compehensive range of features, which make this an ideal choice for most regular phone users.
Current retail price is £79.99 - quite a lot of money considering this is not a technologically advanced digital piece, but what do you get for your money?
One of the biggest plus points for me is that the phone is sturdy, and quite heavy. This means it sits comfortably on a desk or table without being pulled all over the place by the cording. There is a plastic adaptor which can be joined to the base of the phone, which elevates the display screen to a more easily readable angle, and this in turn contributes to the overall sturdiness. The buttons ...
