iCreation I650 Dect Cordless Phone

In an ideal world, we would like a bluetooth phone than works both ways between our iPhones and our land line. Word on the street is that such phones are on the way. (In fact, I think they already exist but I cannot find one available in the Uk that gets good customer reviews.)

In the meantime, this little beauty is heavily discounted and does some but not all of the job.

The bluetooth works just one way, so if you can use this iCreation phone to pick up your incoming iPhone calls and through which to make outgoing iPhone calls. You can also charge up your iPhone on its charging base, although that only works spot on with the old-fashioned IPhone 4 connector and with an adapter on our IPhone 5 but not with the new iPhone 6.

Heck, the device cost us about £30 and is much much better than our old land line phone, so we are happy. I expect I'll be forking out 4 to 5 times as much once the two-way stuff is available in a product that comes with good reviews.

For technical numpties like us, who simply want a better land line phone and are thrilled to be able to pick up our iPhone calls through it, this is a great little purchase.
