Doro 855 DECT Cordless Phone w/ SIM card reader: £29.99 (£34.28 shipped)

Only on Ebuyer do these seem to be this cheap?

I received one of these phones yesterday (from Ebuyer) at a slightly higher price, and have just ordered another batch to replace the other cordless phones in the house - they're fantastic little phones! They have a SIM card reader in the base station; you put in the SIM card from your mobile phone and it copies the address book across. Very useful if you have lots of numbers to keep track of.

(Please note, there is a 100 number limit to the phone book!)

The main thing though is just the look of them - the finish is very professional, not like some phones that look wonderful in photos but cheap in real life. The build quality is very solid. The ergonomics seem to be excellent, though I've only had a day to test it out.

They have a 2.5mm headset jack that is compatible with some makes of mobile phone (Motorola I think?).

Interestingly, these are on sale for less than their sister model without the SIM card reader - the 850. Misprice?!
