I'm curious if you found something that works for you yet?

We've actually gone old-school, and have a 900 mHZ Uniden. It seems to have pretty decent range around (and outside) the house, and doesn't interfere with wireless-G or our baby monitors. Here's what we have (just found the link via google, so don't know about the online store linked here): http://www.buymebuyme.com/retail/customer/product.php?productid=46059&cat=413&partner=froogle

Thanks guys. I've been considering DECT but wasn't sure it would really make a difference. I'll give it a shot.

This one rocks at our house - it is a base unit that has bluetooth - so I can link up my blackberry upstairs and then us it with any of hand units as a "handsfree" device - so I don't have to carry my BB around the house to answer it - I can just use one of the extensions. Also it helps in my basement where I had poor reception on my cell. I can use the extension to make a call from my BB with this phone. There are two buttons so I dial number and press talk for land line and cell to use my cell service. You can connect 6 of these handsets to it. Real easy to set up. It can handle two phones via bluetooth - so it can also be used with my wifes phone as well.

It leaves open the possibility to go without a landline - and just use your cell. But you get convenience of having multiple extensions

Pretty Cool - good Luck

In the US, look for a logo that says DECT 6.

Its a standard that's more recent and should help. Spend less effort working about 2.4ghz, 5.8ghz, etc.. These are great when new, but quickly fill up their spectrums as your neighbors get them too.
