Comment Unidean CLX475 or CLX485 (Score 1) 405

I own a set of Uniden CLX485s. Basic base station with expandable handsets. I have the 485 which includes color screens. They come with a USB cable and a program that will pull contacts from Outlook with a little configuration (contacts with many numbers require mapping to home/office/mobile). Once imported you can set personal ringers and pictures for each one up to the storage limits. My only issue was the battery died and I never got around to ordering new batteries, then a woot deal came along and I got newer Uniden phones (that lack Outlook sync) So they are out there, but I don't know how much support they still get:

Comment Digital Broadcast flag? (Score 1) 214

Since the site is down already - did any of the people who got to the site check out support for the broadcast flag?

If cable companies start using the protection with the didital flags would it render this machine useless? I know the TiVo does support it - after it was (un)intentionally turned on some poor user's Family Guy recording.

Down the road will we need to worry about not being able to use our toys if it doesn't fall into the industry's "supported device" list?
