Motorola DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone with 3 Handsets, Digital Answering System and Bluetooth L513BT

Oh, Motorola L512BT. What a beautiful phone you are! So sleek and minimal, I just adore looking at you. And even talking on you was a pleasure. Your tone was so clear and crisp! Your buttons were soft but also responsive. And that ring... not brassy and intrusive, but soft and inviting. "Hello? Sorry to disturb you, but you have a phone call. If you'd wish to answer it, pick up my smooth, light, velvety body and speak into my gently concave mouthpiece."

I purchased this phone to replace a land line. Connection is through the bluetooth feature to a dedicated cell phone.
