Still got a pair of the 900's here. Just put new batteries in them the
other week and intend to keep them operational as long as they keep working.

I got a 900Mcs spread spectrum unit quite awhile ago
when they were the latest greatest and at the expiry of it initial battery
to take and hold a charge I decided to use that as an excuse to try one of the
2.4Gigs that had only been out for a few years or so. At the initial evaluation
test the old 900 still had better range and was quieter, albeit for a reduced
period of time, so the 2.4 went back and I tried a 5.4 which the 900 also beat
and it got returned. At that point I just got a new battery for the Southwestern
Bell Freedom Phone 900 MHz and it's been going great ever since and will
probably get another battery whenever it needs it. Maybe I need to get a spare
now if/while they're still available.
We're up to DECT 6.0 here, as 2.4 GHz phones interfere with the WiFi.
Uniden sells the phones for almost nothing.
