- Panasonic Dect 6.0 Phone System
This is the best phone system I've had. They worked so well for me I've bought two sets as gifts and the owners have raved about them. They have speakerphones and are very clear. So many more attributes, so until a better phone is made I will continue to give these as gifts.

- Cool Phone. Feature-Packed. Great Value.
I picked this up from a local retailer (Circuit City), and it's been a great buy. I've owned a few Panasonic phones before, and they have all been durable, high-quality, a great value. Their features go beyond the price bracket, and all my Panasonics have out-lasted even the more expensive models (Uniden and Vtech).

The KXTG8232B packs a lot of features for the price (I got mine for $79, but better deals are out there). Included is a 2nd handset and base, digital answerer, speakerphone, intercom with PA capability, and call mute. It's got interference-fighting DECT 6.0, a backlit keypad (attractive orange glow), is compact, appears to be high-quality, durable, and has an color-LCD screen. This is a feature found on phones costing $100+.

Other features include a high-capacity (50 entries) phone book, call entries, lots of ringer tone options, and changable screen savers and color schemes. A big plus for me are the batteries. They're unlike any phone I've ever owned. The handsets use 2 standard AAA NiMh rechargable batteries, instead of a battery pack. These aren't the usual NiCad batteries, and they last a very long time, and when they do wear out, you just replace them with rechargable AAA NiMh's. Other phones require an expensive battery pack.

It's 6.0 DECT, so even with the base in our basement and our WiFi, the call-quality is very good and interference/static-free. The WiFi wreaked havoc with our old 5.8Ghz phone (lots of interference), but has no effect on this one. Range is very good. I can get 150 feet from the base without any trouble. I couldn't even get 25 feet away with the old phone.

Call clarity is also very good on both ends, everyone says calls come in loud and clear.

My only gripes are the shiny finish (a fingerprint magnet) and there's some noticable noise during calls (ins't intrusive or effect call quality though). The keypad buttons are also smallish and nearly flush-mounted, so big-gingered folks like me might take some time getting used to them. I've hit two numbers with the same finger before. Also, for people with voicemail, the digital answerer is an added expensse.

Other than that, I can't find anything else to whine about.
This is an awesome phone; high-quality, durable, reliable, packed with innovative, useful, and practical features for the money. An excellent phone for the money.

- echo issues
Does anyone know what to do to get rid of an echo during conference calls? Only the main handset is fine, others always have the echo issue. I switched between all three units that I have and all of them except the main hadset seem to have the same problem. I hear my own voice while talking to the third party all the time. So annoying!

- Alot in a small package!!
This is a great cordless phone at a decent price. Features are more than expected. The answering machine base is small enough that it doesn't take up too much space on a table, or where ever you decide to put it. I can change the ring tone just like on a cell phone. My only problem is that, the brightness control at night doesn't dim enough. It still seems like a flashlight is on. I have to take it off the base so that the screen light goes off. I highly recommend this phone.

- Great phone!!!
Cell phone reception at my house is terrible. So I signed up for Vonage and purchased this phone. This phone is great!!! I absolutely love it, works great and very easy to use. In addition it is expandable if need be, and its a very nice classy looking phone. The only downside is the contacts are stored in the handset. I wish they were stored in a central base station so you didn't have to enter them in each handset. It is a duplication of effort and very annoying.

It Could be Possible to Stop Hurricanes with Supersonic Jets [Weather Control]

Hurricanes, as we've seen, can wreak serious havoc when they strike populated areas. We've never had control over them before, but one researcher thinks they could be broken up with F-4 fighter jets.

In theory, sending in a pair of the jets to do loops around the eye of the hurricane while it's still out over the ocean, creating sonic booms, would break it up before it hits the shore.

Jet fighters flying at supersonic speeds along special trajectories with a hurricane/typhoon at various altitudes would create supersonic booms. In one such embodiment, the trajectories for the supersonic booms of the present invention are counter to the rotational component of the hurricane and/or typhoon being targeted. As such, supersonic booms can be tailored and/or designed to partially and/or fully -negate the basic rotational contribution in a hurricane by slowing down a hurricane's/typhoon's rotation. Additionally, when supersonic booms propagate downward to the surface of the ocean they also destabilize a hurricane's/typhoon's structure by increasing the pressure in the central part of a hurricane's/typhoon's eye.

It's a pretty crazy idea, but I guess it makes sense. It would be pretty amazing to be able to stop any hurricane before it hit shore, saving millions and millions of dollars and who knows how many lives. I can't wait for them to test this out. [Patent via AV Web; Thanks, Jason!]

Nick Bradbury: Signs of Life

Nick Bradbury just had a tumor removed from his head. Glad to hear he's doing well:

The fact that I'm able to type this blog entry less than a week after the operation has me hopeful that recovery will be quicker than I was led to believe, but it will still be a few weeks before I'm able to really tackle any serious work.
