VOIP841 Additional Handset [Posted on 2008-03-18]
Excellent product. Lousy documentation. Setup was a hassle because the documentation didn't make certain steps clear. Once the proper procedure was discovered on the manufacturer's website it all came together. Love the product.
outstanding addition to the VOIP841 base [Posted on 2008-04-08]
I originally bought a Philips DECT/VOIP base for my parents. After their great experience with it I bought one pluc this additional handset for me and my family.
I'm glad that I read the review the most helpful reviewer of this item, Charles Sullivan. He mentions a very important piece of information for getting the additional handset to work with the base. Apparently Philips forgot this little detail! In any case getting this handset to work with the base (registering it w/base) was a simple as pushing a button the base and making a couple of choices on the handset. Easy as 1-2-3!
I highly recommend the additional handset and the base.
Great Phone / Good Value [Posted on 2008-04-10]
You can do almost everything with this phone -- set up new contacts, place Skype calls OR calls over you landline (which is great for us because we use both a residential service & Skype and only need one phone). It doesn't allow a video feed, and you must setup a paid account online if you choose to use skyplin or skype pro. The sound quality is EXCELLENT! The only reason this bugger got only 4 stars is because of its price. At $115 for the main unit and $58 for the second handset (you can have up to 3 additional handsets, 4 total, btw) I found it pricey. Nevertheless, with all my research, Amazon had the best price, by far.

The Philips DECT/VOIP additional handset complements the VOIP 841 system and is a certified Skype phone. This is a beautifully crafted little phone with a nice clear screen and a huge speaker on the back. you really need the speaker when you make a telephone call,or I do anyway, because I can't hear out of the receiver very well. This must be considered last year's model now because I can't find it in the stores anywhere. This phone makes Skype seem like any other phone service and allows you to keep track of your Skype account at a glance. Its menus are easy for even me to follow. Installation of the phone is easy except when the instructions tell you to press the button to search for a signal. The instructions are misleading. I had to call Philips helpline to finally get it going. You press the button until the lights flash and then you let go immediately and it comes right on. I love this phone, I love Skype.

Nice Add On [Posted on 2008-04-18]
The extra handset for the VOIP841 works great for skype. It was super simple to install. The direction might not explain everything. You have to push a button on the top of the base in order to add the new phone in. There was another review here on amazon that had the details. It always helps to read these reviews before buying. I guess it might help to mention that you can only use one of these at a time. The speaker phone component works very well for group conversations. The battery life and range on these is very nice.
