Phones for Home Office

Thursday, September 07, 2006

I've had the Uniden Tru series for a few years now - early adopter for the 5.8G phones.

Recently my wife and children started actually using the phone (help!) so I had to go out and expense, er, buy a bunch of new handsets.

They have extensively upgraded their offerings and it's all backward compatible. We got a pile of these TCX905 items.

The sound is dramatically improved, setup is more straightforward. The only downside is that the new phones are not charger backward compatible with the older TRU phones. Which seems strange to me, but not everyone is as smart as Toshiba (10+ years with the same charger form factor!) or Nokia.

Find The Boots

An executive goes on a business trip. When he arrives, it's raining cats and dogs. To avoid ruining his shoes, he purchases a pair of galoshes for $15, which he expenses under "Misc." on his expense report. A week later, the accounting department rejects his expense report, with a post-it note that says that the company does not reimburse for items of clothing. The next trip, the executive turns in an expense report without the galoshes, but with a post-it note that says "FIND THE BOOTS!".
