Advantages: Many features, "pretty" good voice quality Disadvantages: Too numerous to mention
language. They repeatedly begin an instruction and refer the reader to another page, which, more often than not, fails to complete the instruction necessary to activate one of the many features of the phone, e.g., base station speaker phone.
A customer service number is provided on the manual. If you live in the U.S., you will find dealing with these people challenging to say the least. Several times, I was told to call back and ask for a particular man who was apparently one of few who spoke and understood English.
Based on my experienced, I strongly recommend avoiding this model phone. Personally, I will never buy another Siemens product of any kind because of this experience.

Advantages: Small, easy to use and relatively stable Disadvantages: Poor support and old drivers

This USB adaptor supports the 108Mbps SuperG wireless standard, and is backwards compatible with a, b and regular G networks too. It supports WEP, WPA and WPA2.

Advantages: Stylish, easy to use, outstanding battery life Disadvantages: Don't expect the colour screen to be like your mobile phone!
Not long ago, I wrote a review of my BT Synergy Quad phone set, stating how happy I was with it. And I was happy with it, although I did state that the battery was starting to give me problems periodically.
Now I could have gone on using my Synergy set for some time, but the battery issue was starting to get me down...occasionally I would be chatting away on the phone only to have the line and phone go dead in mid conversation.
I had already decided that when I replaced the BT set, it would only be for phones with colour screens and I shall unashamedly admit this choice was made on aesthetic grounds rather than through thorough research.
My mind was finally made up when I received a VIP invite to the Next summer sale online and spied upon the SiemensGigaset C475 Triple available for the bargain price of £50 - so far as I was ...
