I hear you Arthur. I have an attorney, 3 people all together, in a 600 sq ft office and she insists on a cordless phone. I think you are right about the Cell phone theory. Why don't we invent a deskphone that will pair with a bluetooth headset? I know there are a couple of them out there, but it seems that there might be more interest for it.

Don't forget that you can throw their cordless phones on their LAN and have coverage anywhere they have LAN access along with a full featured PBX of their choice.

Great opportunity to sell them Plantronics CS-55 or CS-70 headsets (with lifters). Better than cordless, AND they can answer whatever line is ringing at their phone. :read:

I tried that with the cordless phones on their LAN, they have 6 wireless access points and it isn't enough coverage. We didn't want anything even in the same wireless spectrum as the WAPs. Also, they have a total home automation setup. Each light has an IP address, he has TWO laptops acting as servers to run the house. It is so messed up, ALL the lights flicker several times a day. The installer of this "Automated House system" was WAY out of his element, so much so he went belly up. His guys have the network cabling laying on the concrete floor in the basement, labeled it with the room name instead of some kind of numbering system. The labels after 6 months are already fading. He put plugs on the wire instead of putting in a Patch Panel. He did this at the Dr's new office as well. Sorry for the rant, I had to bite my tongue so much in front of them that I have scars. Just not in my nature to bad mouth another guy to his customer.

Ed, that sounds like one of the horror story installs I read about every month in CEPro and Residential Systems. It's just sad.

"A" game? More like feed the customer a line and give them the f game, and charge them through the nose. When a guy is spending 5 Mil on his house and wants me to wire it, he gets a "professional", commercial install. The way I look at it, someone will see my work for years.
