A:AnswerThis is grom the VTech website:
Connect to Cell™2
Make and receive calls from your cellular plan while enjoying the comforts of a home phone. Pair up to 4 cell phones and connect 2 cell phones or one cell phone and one BLUETOOTH headset for use with landline calls.
A:AnswerYes, but it does not let you name the handset so you know what room it is in. The last one we had allowed you to name the handset with say 'office' or kitchen' so there was no doubt where you were calling. This phone just has numbers for the handset.
A:AnswerYou will need to look at the power adapter. If the adapter has 100 - 120 it can be used in the US. Most other countries use 200 -240v, which require a stepdown transformer towork. I have seen a couple of reviews from Canada. You may be able to get this same item from the manufacturer for uses in other countries.
A:AnswerThis is just an awful step backwards from the previous VTech CS6529-26 which had a dedicated INT button to quickly initiate an intercom with another handset. Now it's a confusing multi-step process. Terrible ergonomics decision made by the manufacturer here for the newer model.
A:AnswerHi - Yes, the caller ID announce of the VTech IS8151-2 can be turned off. Here's how you can turn off the Caller ID announce.
