  • Is the one in Argos cheaper than the ones in Currys/PCWorld?

    They both sell the LOGIK L04CTEL10 for £15.99.

    The argos one is in a bundle which is 44.99 so this is great, thanks.
    Just looked at reviews though and 1 says it needs a backlight?? Will go in and have a look i think.
  • I had a quick look on Google Product Search before posting this too see if there might be somewhere else selling this cheaper, Currys/PCWorld came up cheapest. You could also try searching the MegaShopBot.

    From memory, the regulations state that any backlit display must not be line powered (ie using the exhange line current). This means it will have to be battery or mains powered, if the former - then the display is only active for seconds when dumbers are being dialled or the handset is ringing. Not many do this now as it adds considerably to the cost.
  • Thanks, looks like i will have to have a torch handy!
