Excellent TWO line unit that accepts up to ten handsets. THE TWO LINES CAN BE USED AT THE SAME TIME BY DIFFERENT HANDSETS or multiple people can be on the same line !!!.TRUE 5.8ghz used for both transmit and receive (unlike others) so it won't interfere with 2.4ghz wireless lans.Handsets can be used offsite without the base to talk from handset to handset or as a room monitor, speakerphone in handsets.All sorts of great features check out the manual link for the detals.

Handsome professional looking unit, handsets have solid feel and use Nickel Metal Hydride batteries.Corded phone audio quality. Keep in mind that almost none of the phones in the consumer marketplace have great range but this unit works well around the house, front porch and most of your backyard (if its not to big), the fewer walls and obstructions the better. Better range is afforded by commercial units with external antennas and lower frequencies but these units are either way to expensive or do not afford the feature set that this unit offers.
HEADSET: I've tested many with this unit.The best I found is the Panasonic KX-TCA86 which is only about $14.I tried two Plantronics and Uniden's own neither of which had adequate microphone volume.

Uniden TRU8866 5.8 GHz Digital Expandable 2-Line Cordless Speakerphone with Dual Keypads (Black)Product Description: The Uniden TRU8866 cordless phone system offers an attractive bundle of features with room to grow. 5.8 GHz digital signal transmission offers increased call clarity and security while the impressive caller ID capabilities ensure that you'll never miss a call or lose an important number. Plus, a duplex speakerphone in the base and a standard speakerphone in the handset provide hands-free conversation options.
Housed in a professional-looking, no-nonsense black case, the phone's memory is shared between the caller ID log and the programmable memory dialing--100 names and numbers in the handset, and 100 more in the base unit. You can locate numbers using a alphabetic search tool similar to that of a typical cell phone, and the most commonly dialed numbers can be assigned to 10 speed dial presets accessed on the base unit.
The TRU8866 offers room to grow. It's expandable to 10 handsets (model #TCX860, one included). With additional handsets, you can transfer calls, transfer memory locations, and even use them as an intercom around the house or as a room monitoring system (baby monitor).
Additional features include conferencing, trilingual menu display options, distinctive ring tones, mute, hold, redial, and headset compatibility (headset sold separately). Even with additional handsets, the TRU8866 requires just one phone jack. Simply plug the base unit into a phone jack, and the additional handsets will configure themselves to "talk" directly with the base unit.

I have had this cable caddy for about four years now and just bought 3 more, 1 for me and 2 for gifts. It is the best way to keep cords organized on your desk, especially for laptops. I have the cables for my speakers, iPod, power, printer, etc. in the cable caddy and when I set my laptop on the desk they are all there ready to be plugged in. My only suggestion would be to use 3M strips to attach it to your desk, that way you can move it many times!
