thanks, I'm looking at Polycom phones now, you weren't wrong about the
price <smile> but if the 300 model does what I want and need? Well it
will be worth every cent.

One brand to check if you don't mind the price is Polycomm. Their big market
are corporate teleconference phones and systems but they do make a couple of
home office oriented models that are really solid with fantastic speaker phones.
Best regards,

That I did, not bringing in phones to Australia - well corded one's at
any rate - it would appear.

Check what Panasonic themselves are doing? You might find an equivalent.

Had to finally throw away my Panasonic Corded phone which has done me proud and
has given good service for 12 years.
At the time the phone cost $300 I think it was and was an executive model,
offering everything in a corded phone that a user of a desktop phone could
want, excellent hands free, 300 number phone book which was easy to scroll
through - just scroll to the number you wanted, pick up the phone and the
selected number would be called, some speed dial keys, music on hold, socket
for a headset and so on, a pricy phone for the time but when I compare it to
the Telstra rubbish I now have? Well the Telstra phone is just that, absolute
rubbish.
I’m going to have a look on eBay to see if there are sellers up there offering
anything better, I doubt I’ll get what I had in the Panasonic but one never
knows when it comes to eBay, I’ll keep you all posted.
