Questions & Answers

Is that the chepone you're talking about?

No, I've got the more expensive one, which cost more than $100.

What's the deal with this being so pricey?

This is most likely due to the fact that it is no longer manufactured. I got mine for $1 at a garage sale, including the adapter! It was created prior to the 2007 change in daylight savings time, as evidenced by the fact that it alters times on the incorrect weeks. However, this isn't a deal-breaker. It appeals to my tastes. If it had been $40 or more, I would not have bought it.

Can you get massages on this, and can you leave a personal message when someone calls?

Unless they've upgraded to a newer model, this will only save the caller's phone number for future use and notify you when a new call with the same name comes in. caller's phone number - It will also greet you on a daily basis, wishing you well. the- Greetings for the day (such as "Merry Christmas!").

You've got to be kidding me, 5 and 1 star
5/5

I bought one in 2008 (amazon can verify) and it's difficult for me to write about it. It appeals to me. It's fantastic. It cost me around $60. What exactly took place? I've seen these for around $300 on the internet. An eeprom error occurred as a result of a power surge during recent storms. It'd been going on for a long time. But there's no way I'm paying that price; even if it lasts for years, which I doubt it will, given the comments here, I'd like to know why it's so high. Amazon can confirm that I purchased one from sharper image in 2008 through this site. Three AAA batteries were used in my case. Others have rechargeable batteries (to keep the information current), which I've seen. Come on, people, tell me why this has become so expensive. br>5 stars for fun and utility; 1 star for feeling like I'm being ripped off.

However, this is a fantastic idea
3/5

This caller ID unit's concept is absolutely brilliant. I could sit and watch it go through its various patterns for hours, but there are a few things about it that I dislike. My wife and I decided to install this unit in our kitchen, and we can clearly hear the motor whirling even over the refrigerator's noise. The buttons are poorly designed, and you must press them precisely in order to receive command input. On the plus side, the instruction manual that comes with the unit is well written and simple to understand. It was simple to set up, and the unit even came with backup batteries. It looks fantastic and is a lot of fun to watch. I'd recommend it to others as long as it's not in your bedroom or another room where you prefer silence.

LED Message Center with a Globe Scrolling
5/5

I really like how this product works, and it's easy to see from across the room, which is exactly what we needed. As long as it is not placed in a brightly lit or sunny area, the image is clear and sharp and works well both during the day and at night. If used in a bedroom, the light is too bright; it should have a bright and dim mode setting, as well as an automatic dimmer. br>br>Overall, I'm very happy with the product and all of the extras that come with it. br>br>Item lasted one year and then stopped working after a few days because it would only light up at random, rendering the unit useless. br>br>I'd like to be able to change a 5-star review to a 2-star review, but I can't.

This is an excellent gift for someone who is difficult to shop for
5/5

I've owned one for ten years and received this as a gift. It's a great talking point, and nearly everyone who sees mine wants one. I didn't have to pay much more than $50. Sharper Image is currently offering a 00 discount. I'm not sure why it's no longer for sale. There have been no issues with it.

I recently purchased an information globe and am very pleased with it
5/5

I received my information globe a while ago and am very pleased with it. I can see who is calling and don't have to do anything other than pick up the phone and greet them. Thank you very much. It's a fantastic asset to have. It's especially beneficial to senior citizens. Darleen, I'd like to express my gratitude for everything you've done for It appeals to me.

The purchase was excellent
5/5

It's wonderful not to have to get up and look for the phone to see who's on it; this illuminates and is easily readable from across the room, even for my 45-year-old eyes. We adore the holiday messages it has pre-programmed in it. It is also possible to program it on your own. If you try to operate it without first reading the instructions, you will be disappointed. It is well worth the effort!.

Caller ID is the coolest thing I've ever seen! In 2007, I purchased this CID unit
5/5

It's still going strong, and it hypnotizes everyone who walks into my house. It continues to astound us by displaying messages that we have never seen before. Today, for instance, is Thanksgiving. "TURKEY DAYS ARE HERE," it scrolled alongside the greeting "Happy Thanksgiving. ".
