CellSocket Anyone?

I am considering getting CellSocket to make my cell phone usabile at
home. Currently, very, very, very, bad. I do have a few spots in the
ouse that work.

Here is the web site:
http://www.cellsocket.com/

I only have Motorola V180. It's not listed on the website as compatible.
I do see a couple of the phones look similar on the website. I wonder if
it would work. Thanks.

I got one, it works ok if you have good signal to start with. dont
expect it to help if your in a fringe area and cant make calls directly
on your cell handset to start with.

I also have a problem where it keeps ringing my connected phone even
after the cell phone stops 'ringing'

their customer (lack-of)service is pathetic to non-existant.

I think it would work singal-wise. I can stand in one spot and talk. I
don't see they support V180 though. Is your phone model supported? The
glitches you mentioned isn't too serious. Are there more problems?

I have an older model for my Nokia 6360. It works well enough.

Don't wonder; call them. Phones may look similar but work differently.

I wrote them on the email asking about Motorola V180 and I got the
answer back saying they no longer make it for NOKIA phones?!?!?!?!

I heard dock-to-talk is pretty good - no experience with it though.

I think maybe Nokia was being too tight-lipped about the interfaces
to their newer phones. Here's another CellSocket-related link:

Thank you very much. The Dock N Talk looks very promising. And they are
in my area so if it doesn't work, I can give them !@#$%^&*. ;-)

If you have broadband, why not get VoIP for your home and have it ring your
cell phone simultaneously? Many services are only $20/m with unlimited free
LD. Ideally, you'd want to have your cell number ported over to your VoIP
service, if possible.
