>CID on a DBS is much more user friendly than the KX-TD. You mean that Panasonic could improve the KX-T system by adopting the good practices of the DBS product? They do not even have to try to learn about the features of a competitor's product (and run into problems with access to product, etc.)?

When I was shopping for a phone system for installation North of San Francisco, I could not get a DBS installer to call back. A business needs product, sales, AND service to excel. Protective marketing of superior products promotes poor sales and service. I suspect that the Dilbert cartoon strip translates into Japanese very well. Paul H.

Here I am!! For those of you that care, I've moved to Carson City, near Lake Tahoe CID on the "DBS32" AKA 8/24 requires a CPC-M processor. You can check versions by going off-hook on any LCD phone, mashing the "CONF" button and dialing 7777. If it says S, you need a new CPU, if it says M, alls you gotta do is add a CID daughterboard (4 port) at ~300. If your CPU is A,AII or B, you've got the larger system. "A" wont do CID, AII and B will take it as long as the version number is higher than 6.11. On the larger system, you need a compatible CO card and a $425, 8 port daughterboard. These are discontinued and hard to find. (But I've got one) IMHO, CID on a DBS is much more user friendly than the KX-TD. One thing I don't like is that there is no "Callback" function when scrolling through logs. -Joe -- Joe Childs Austin Telecom 2701 Conestoga Dr. Suite 126 Carson City, NV 89703 (888) 999-3969 === From: "Charles P." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Carl Navarro" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: KX-T: Re: Pana DBS help Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2002 22:33:44 -0400 Isn't it nice that they refer dbs users to kxt techs?

Better call Joe in the morning (I keep his number in my Palm). The Pana and other web sites says you can do it but I haven't seen any part number yet.
