Go with the Motorolas Mach. Look for the ones with the rechargable batteries, they can be had for as little as 40 dollars for a set of two.

ditto

I have Motorolas and I can't fault them except!! The eat batteries - hence the rechargable suggestion.

MAke sure they have a good few channels (10 or so), otherwise you end up chatting to all kinds of folks lol

No problem. They have regular size ones and they have micro size too, but I don't believe the micros have rechargable batts. Look for the Talkabout T6550R, that is a great unit.

Here is a link for all the units

But that can be fun! lol

I think I had motorolas too, Mach. Mine had about 14 channels and we'd sometimes pick up the neighbors cell phones and such. Probably not so much of a concern where you are, though.

Mach, another option, if you like, are these cell phones...


Just 4-5 keys, with speed dials for Mom, Dad and 911.

If you already have a service, I think these are the carriers that have them available to include with your package plan:

Cingular
Sprint
Verizon
Nextel
T Mobile
