Fails in the most important area,

This phone looks nice, setup is easy and most of the features work well. However, it fails in the most important area -- talking on the phone. It has this feature where when you talk, it quiets the person on the other end, and then the sound gradually comes back over a couple seconds. So if you say something or even make any noise while the other person is talking, it basically silences the other person for several seconds, making it impossible to carry on a decent conversation.
It's not designed very well for holding the phone with your shoulder... if you try to hold it with the earpiece next to your ear so you can hear, then you end up accidentally hitting buttons. If you hold it any other way, you can't hear anything.
Also, the speakerphone is useless. I couldn't hear anything at all out of it, though the person could hear me.
It's going back to Target today.

Good clarity, easy to set up. Reasonably priced. Many features (intercom, ease of use, large built-in directory) not found in competitors.
