Amazon Lightning deal, cheapest by around £10. I have the cheaper 150 model, at this price I'm going to upgrade. Hopefully last a while for others that need them.

Thanks these will come in handy to tell my butler to bring me some fresh caviar from the west wing to my boudoir.

How do you join the waitlist and is the idea that if someone removes them from there basket they become available to you?.

This was highlighted in the reviews. Maybe it's linked to cold weather conditions.

Also, cheaper to activate 2 giffgaff sims, put in a 99p phone, and enjoy 3 months of free calls and texts between them! It will be clearer and the range will be like 800 miles (if one of you is in lands end, the other in John o groats!)

Useful for when out in the country, or skiing, but you'll only never get near the range even with line of sight, any buildings will reduce the range considerably. When I was skiing once I estimated I got well over a mile, but that was line of sight(one user at top of mountain, the other at the bottom. Once I went behind one single building all contact was lost! Forget it too if there's a valley or rocks in the way!

Great if you can't afford a mobile phone contract and your Mrs wants to know your whereabouts every 5 minutes...

I have the 950 version which is the previous 2 models to thus version, they are good for 2 miles easy out in mid wales, had 3 miles max, they do for what i need so no complaints, each unit takes 4 x AAA batteries, i replaced the supplied 600mah batteries for 1000mah duracell rechargables to give a good 4-5 days run time, not that there is anything wrong with the supplied batteries, even they will last 2-3 days run time.

So in summary, good for the kids to play with or for shoet range coms but let down by poor design
