Need new phones for the landline-suggestions?

[golfgal]

We have some Uniden cordless phones that I love however they don't hold a charge any longer and I can't find replacement batteries any longer so I need new phones. The number one MUST have is a volume control that I can turn WAY up so I can hear on the phone. After that, one that allows at least 4 handsets. We have VM with our land line so we don't need an answering machine. I wish you could actually try them out in a store before buying but you can't. Suggestions?

I have a Radio Shack model 43-325 that sounds like it would work for you.

Yes, you can control the actual call volume - you have to do it during a call, but I'm sure you know someone understanding who you can call to do this?

The only thing I can't see, looking quickly, is how many remote handsets you can have - but I know the salespeople can tell you. Wait, I found it! Up to TWELVE!! What I like best about this phone, aside from it being lighter than my old phone and having Caller ID and no external antenna, is that is has voice mail notification, but no voice mail. No answering machine, so you're not paying for a feature you won't use. I think this phone cost me $24.99.
