Hi. I will be setting up a home office and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good cordless telephone. I would like one with a speaker, so I can type & do other things without resting the phone against my neck & holding it. Also, looking for one with a long range. I have a very OLD cordless Sony, but when I walk around, it tends to switch channels alot.

Thanks for any info!

You might want to get a head set that plugs into the cordless phone. They are great for talking and typing or looking through files at the same time.

Thanks for that tip! I am going to look for one today that also has a speaker phone as well, but a head set would be great since I wouldn't get a kink in my neck while on the phone, typing & looking through files. Again, thanks!

Plantronix is worth the money.
