Several companies sell home phone systems that can I believe use your
cell phone to make and take calls. Anybody know if these work well. It
would be nice to have a desk phone that uses your cell. I saw an ATT
ad.


Why would this be "nice"?
This is reverse technology. *Now you have to charge the cellphone more
often. *A standard home phone requires no electricity or battery
charging. *Technology was originally designed to make life easier, but
reverse technology makes it more difficult. *You seem to be choosing
that method.

You can get a home phone for less than $10. *Plug it in, and never
fuss with it again. *But if you like the battery charging and
replacing routine, and have money to blow on your electric bill, thats
up to you.


Charge the Cell more often? Thats backwards, id be charging and using
it less by letting the BT landline do the work. for 10$ you dont get
