My daughter says the phones are broken, everytime she tries to call Shelby the phone doesn't work, she places the phone on speaker, enters Shelby's number, presses dial, and the phone goes click click-click-click-click-click click-click-click-click .... If we'd waited long enough it would have finished "dialing" the call to Shelby in Texas. It took longer to figure out how to unreprogram the phones than it did to figure out what had happened, still don't know how it happened. -- rec --
