Query: Lousy Phone - Shop Elsewhere

I've only had this phone for 6 months and I'm already shopping for a different one. After fully charging both handsets last for MAYBE 5 minutes before I start getting the beeps and "low battery" indicators. The sound quality is hideous, constantly fades in and out - even if you are standing next to the base!! The answering machine playback - even at top volume - is barely audible. All the programming features (memory, answering, etc.) are very NON-user friendly.I have dsl, which may be part of the sound quality issues, though all my lines have dsl filters on them.I'll never buy another Northwestern Bell product again.
