No Wires. No Hands. All Business.
The Plantronics Calisto Pro is a fully integrated, hands-free phone system that will redefine the way you work at home or in your home office. Offering unprecedented levels of versatility and freedom, this innovative, compact system is ideal for anyone who multi-tasks while talking on the phone. The Calisto Pro lets you communicate hands-free as you email, roam around your home office or home, or even cook dinner. And for the ultimate in convenience and efficiency, it lets you seamlessly switch between your landline, your VoIP service, and your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone calls.

And thanks to the system's superior noise-canceling Bluetooth headset with extended mouthpiece, you'll always sound professional. The Calisto Pro phone operates on DECT 6.0 frequency, which means that call clarity is not affected by Wi-Fi networks or home appliances, such as the microwave, and you can roam up to 300 feet from the base without suffering any degradation in sound quality.

Streamlined, Ergonomic Design
The Plantronics Calisto Pro features a streamlined and elegant look that's designed to reduce desktop clutter. The base doubles as a one-stop docking and charging station, and holds both the Bluetooth headset and the compact handset. It includes a USB port that lets you connect to your PC to sync your Outlook contacts in a matter of minutes (the handset has the capacity to hold up to 200 Outlook contact with three phone numbers each) and connect to either your Yahoo! Voice or Skype VoIP service.

The compact handset docks neatly into the base and includes all the calling features you'd expect in a phone, including caller ID, call waiting, 3-way conferencing, redial, speed dial, and more. It features a large, high-resolution LCD for easy viewing and offers up to eight hours of talk time, or 120 hours of standby time, away from the base. A flip-up waist clip lets you carry the handset with you hands-free as you roam.

The Bluetooth headset also offers up to eight hours of talk time, or 240 hours of standby time, per charge, and can be used with your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone wherever your travels take you. And because the headset's features a superior noise-canceling microphone with an extended mouthpiece, you'll never have to worry about sound quality.

Landline, VoIP or Cell--It's Your Choice
With the Calisto Pro, the days of acting like a circus juggler with your phone services are over. With the Calisto Pro, you can consolidate your voice communications into a single, convenient and easy-to-use system. By simply connecting the base to your computer with a USB cable, you can make and receive VoIP calls with Skype or Yahoo! Voice. The Calisto Pro also lets you easily switch over to a call on your landline or answer your Bluetooth enabled cell phone through your headset.

The Calisto Pro brings a touch of elegance and a whole lot of convenience into your home office. The PC software is compatible with Windows 2000, XP and Vista and the Mac software is compatible with Mac OS 10.4 and later. Calisto Pro is backed by a 1-year warranty.

Everything about this phone is cheap, except the price:

I am very technically inclined and usually never write reviews. I bought this phone 6 months ago due to the good reviews here on Amazon. BIG mistake, are people here who give this 5 stars actually using it?. What is wrong with it you ask:
- poor battery life, better charge it every night or no phone for you tomorrow
- thick and bulky like an old flip phone from 10 years ago
- phone software and software you install on your PC is archaic
- screen on handset is such poor quality it is... more info

Tried 3 not one worked right:

Tried three brand new phones of which none of them worked right. Never was able to use the call logs completely though they work fine on all other phones. The tech support team is batting 1 with knowledge for every 5 who are clueless. If tech support is bad I always give low ratings as customer service should be #1. Imagine them wanting to send me a reconditioned unit for a brand new one. Way overpriced.

Nice Item:

Great bluetooth, very functional. Buttons are a bit hard to press, but it is a nice unit.

Good phone with some significant limitations.:

Headset stays connected to the handset for up to approx. 30 feet; 6. Very good sound quality; 7. Easy to adjust the... more info
