omg in love with this phone the minute i got it, but as soon as i started to make a phone call to test it, i got the hissing sound in the background, turns out i found what the problem was, it was my wireless modem-router set on a channel that interferes with the home phone, so all i did was change it to "Auto" in the settings of the router and BOOM the hissing sound on the home phone disappeared :) apart from that it's an Awesome phone! :D

I recently purchased one of these phones from Ryda. I ordered online on Sunday night, got an email Monday that my order was being processed, and it arrived at work on Tuesday. Fantastic service!
The things that got me to buy this phone were the design (more like a mobile than a cordless phone), it is made in Germany, and the Bluetooth address sync (works really well with my iMac).
I was however surprised with the voice quality. My (very) old Panasonic sounded better in my opinion. I sent a note to the Siemens support and they got back to me with a suggestion in 48hrs which was a welcome surprise. That seemed to help (there was a slight background hiss) but I still think there is some getting used to the difference (which I almost have).
In summary, great service from Ryda and Siemens. I like this phone for many things but I think that Panasonic probably has better sound quality.
