[net.wanted] Cordless telephone info request

djb@cbosgd.UUCP (12/02/83)

I am looking for information on cordless phones, particularly reviews
of particular models or brand names.  I have shopped around (sales people
are generally useless when it comes to hard technical questions) and
have most of the features figured out, although the two-way paging and
security arrangements still are somewhat confusing.  I'd appreciate
any clarification on these features/issues (particularly since security
seems to be an important concern).

Also, I have noticed a great resemblence between UNIDEN phones and
AT&T's Nomad line.  The cases and feature sets are identical (as far
as I can tell) but there is no indication that one manufacturer is
responsible for both.

I would like to know if there are cordless phones available that work
with conventional modems -- or if there are self-contained modems that
work like cordless phones. I think it would be great NOT to have to be
next to a phone outlet to use my modem!
