2 out of 5 stars Complete System Needed.......2006-08-13

I have it for about 3 years now and is the primary phone in my home office. But instead of using it I would rather pickup my cellphone which has more friendly usable features. The headset easily falls off the base if you install it on a wall or it may not settle correctly and you end up with a dial tone. Fumbled with it multiple times, and the reason why its still in my desk is that it makes my desk it look like an office desk (its a decor).

2 out of 5 stars Mediocre Office Phone.......2002-11-18

This phone will not work on it's own power, and requires a proprietory power supply made by Casio, which is a 120 v, power driven, wall wart type adapter. It isn't very long, so you can't go further away from the AC wall outlet than the length of that cord. It does have a battery backup so if your building power (120 volt A.C.) goes out, then your phone will still work, but I worry about battery corrosion harming the phone upon long periods of time with the batteries in the phone. Also, the volume on the handset seems to pick up alot of noise when you turn the volume up. It seems hard to hear your party on the other end of the phone conversation. This phone is fragile. I had the phone 2 weeks and it fell to the floor due to the tangled mess of cords running from the phone. It requires 3 wires to the phone. Two RJ-11 phone wires - one for each of two lines - and the power cord. The phone electronics inside the phone broke, and I had to send the phone in for repair (not covered by warranty). All in all a disappointing purchase.

5 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY THE BEST THERE IS FOR THE MONEY !!!!.......2002-09-24

This phone offers more flexibility and features for the money than anything else I've found on the market. And I've built a few call centers ...so I'm not a phone novice. Sure it has a few quirks - like you can only record the greetings from the handsfree speaker and it has a synthesized voice that plays "Your call will be answered shortly" when callers are transferred...but with an Auto Attendant that works and the ability to have up to 6 tiered greetings per station + voicemail at each station and up to 12 stations in the network that can all be paged and have intercom - THIS SYSTEM RULES. Add in the simple wiring that you already have or can do yourself and this kicks any small PBX right in the teeth as far as dollars spent.

It has some really handy features like the ability to redial a number from caller ID, a memo record feature, supports headsets and can be polled remotely for messages.

1 out of 5 stars The SI 460 is a piece of JUNK.......2002-05-17

Casio told me they discontinued the SI 460 (all phones)when I contacted their totally inept tech support group on 5/15/02. I've had nothing but trouble with the 2 SI 460s since I bought them last year.

Their tech support/customer service capabilities are as bad as their technology. No wonder they stopped making corded phones!! I am not going to rehash my bad experiences with Casio over the last 1+ years as it will make me crazy. I had enough dealing with them earlier today.

                      1 out of 5 stars Battery does not power up USB devices standalone.......2007-09-20

                      The reason I bought this product is so that I could power up USB devices and the hub with the included batteries. Unfortunately, the hub will not power any devices I tried nor operate as a hub without drawing power from a laptop or PC. The manual states that the red LED will extinguish when the batteries have discharged. However, even when I removed the batteries, the red LED remained on. Basically, there does not seem to be any way to determine if the batteries are doing anything. I am still looking for a true battery powered hub.

                      4 out of 5 stars Functional - Room for some improvement.......2007-08-23

                      This unit does what it purports to do. It provides a 4 USB port hub with some ability to power outside devices via its on-board battery pack. Quibbles: my m-audio Oxygen-49 keyboard draws too much power for the built in hub in the iMac Keyboard, and though it can be powered by the CP-H420MP, it draws down the batteries quickly, within an hour or two. I ended up attaching an AC adapter to the keyboard. There is an unlabelled switch on the CP-H420MP for powered or unpowered operation. What would it take for them to put a label on the switch? The unit comes with a card that you can use to buy an inexpensive AC adapter for this USB hub. I threw it away when I opened the package. I shouldn't have. None of my generic AC adapters work with it.

                      2 out of 5 stars Not Recommended.......2007-07-17

                      I don't recommend this unit for the following reasons:
                      1) The precision of the case is quite poor. I was almost unable to open the battery cover. I finally used my Swiss Knife to modify the battery cover to resolve the problem.
                      2) The battery indicator is only passive (switch on/off indicator only) and cannot tell you if the batteries are in use or not. Even without the batteries, the indicator can be still on. I cannot confidently say that this device does not draw power from my vulnerable VAIO UX280.
                      3) When using the Sennheiser USB adaptor on this device, the audio quality was significantly degraded. I assume that this device cannot keep data flow fast enough.

                      I have had several different 4 port hubs that I have used with different laptops and found all liking in one way or the other. This hub even with out using the battery powered fecture works on all 4 ports. A good buy for the money.

                        5 out of 5 stars Best road warrior hub ever.......2006-11-05

                        I have been very pleased with this hub.

                        It had been next to impossible to find a battery powered hub. My issue was, with being a road warrior, I needed a hub that was USB 2.0 and would support thevarious devices I carry with me on the road. I have other 2.0 hubs but none of them would suppport (i.e. maintain power and connectivity) devices such as a 2.5 100 gb hard drive (usb powered), my ipod, my "Q" phone (and others) without having to use the AC power adapter. Being on the road a lot, always having to use/plug in the AC adapter was a real pain. Finally found this device and it has ended all problems. In fact with this hub (plugged into a Sony Vaio S570P) I haven't even had to turn on the batteries! And everything single thing I plug into it has enough power to operate. Even with all 4 ports in use!!!. Typically I have plugged into it: mouse, ipod, Q (phone for activesync) and a USB powered 100 gb hard drive. My only two suggestions to Cyberpower Systems . . . include the AC adapter in the package (they include a mail-in card for the adapter for $6.95 in shipping) nad make a 7 port version.

                        One of the best pieces of road warrior computer gear in my bag. Highly recommended!!!!
