is it possible 2 turn a corded phone in2 a cordless one?

[evedawn]

my hub tells me he recalls seeing a gadget that can be plugged into the handpiece of a corded standard phone that enabl;es it to then be used as a cordless phone? he says this enables the twirly phone cord to be removed and it can be used as a cordless. he'snot sure where or when he saw this...anybody else heard of such an odd thing? if so where would it be purchased? how would this work?

[spudqueen]

Surely the real question is 'why bother when cordless phones are so cheap'?

[evedawn]

yeah - but i'm alsking as a curiosity - cos the hub swears he saw a gadget that would do this....but can't remeber when / where

[evedawn]

oh spudqueen - besides the "curiosity factor" i've just asked mby hiub why and he says the phone concerned is an office phone, linked to a big switchboard...dunno why this would make a difference?

Yes you can, the phones at work and the wholesaler I use have them, when I go there next i'll get the make of it and let you know...

[evedawn]

No problem, I looked on the unit at the wholesalers and it's made by a company called Plantronics.
