Title: A problematic phone from day one.
Review: I've owned this model phone for just over one year and I have endured many annoying malfunctions; finally the handset is unusable. Frequently the phone will not dial the currently displayed number, but instead just gives you the dial tone. The only way to "reset" this behavoir is to cradle the handset for a second to restore normal operation. Occasionally, the hand set will display an "out of range" message even when standing next to the base unit; this in now a permanent malfunction. The sound quality from the handset is clear but contains some strange distortion that makes some callers sound mechanical. Much worse is the ansering machine sound, some messages are very hard to understand while the others would only rate fair to good. Obviously I've wasted my money on this phone and I have soured on Panasonic.
