VTech VC7151 Wireless Home Monitoring System with Cordless Telephone and VTech Sensor Compatibility


This is a phone and answering machine that works well. The phone clarity is positive. This also is the base unit for a home monitoring system.  Conceptually it is a very good idea.  You can purchase door sensors and motion detectors and have them synced with this base unit.  The base can then call numbers that you have preprogrammed to alert to the sensor’s alarm.  As an example you could program your cell phone to be called if the sensor on the garage door showed it was opened.  This is what the documentation says.  However as the base unit does not come with any sensors, I can not report as to the veracity of their claims.  It works fine as a phone as to the rest, you will have to get sensors to determine if that feature works. 

If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
