Vtech IS6110 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone with Instant Messaging Capability Review

yes, this product is fun, exciting, supports AOL/MSN... but it fails to support the updated MSN/Windows Live builds later than 8.5 (such as builds 12 or 14, which is the new MSN 9), nor does it support any other languages of MSN builds other than English/US.
i had to actually track down MSN 8.1 English/US (not English/India) to use this, which is no easy feat, as MSN/WL installer for 8.5 automatically updates to 14 (which is MSN 9), thus making this innovative product a useless, oversized cordless phone. I just emailed Vtech for workaround, but don't get your hopes up. it makes no sense for Vtech to have had forethought to support future updated versions of MSN/WL, as Microsoft tends to phase out older versions of MSN (remember Windows Messenger?) and renders them null. Cool product, but intrinsically and fundamentally flawed. As MSN is such an integral part to this product, i think it warrants only 1/5 stars for such failure until updated to support later MSN/WL versions.
