Uniden ELBT595
Originally uploaded by seafoam.
New Bluetooth enabled cordless phone, available April 2005 according to the website. Saw an ad for it in the feb 2005 CE Lifestyles magazine. Supposedly allows you to use your cell phone with a regular landline phone like a couple other devices: Doc-N-Talk (Review) and the Merge. The Uniden uses bluetooth to make the connection and I'm guessing the Hands Free Profile which is also used by some of the newer cars.
