No Wires. No Hands. All Business.
The Plantronics Calisto Pro is a fully integrated, hands-free phone system that will redefine the way you work at home or in your home office. Offering unprecedented levels of versatility and freedom, this innovative, compact system is ideal for anyone who multi-tasks while talking on the phone. The Calisto Pro lets you communicate hands-free as you email, roam around your home office or home, or even cook dinner. And for the ultimate in convenience and efficiency, it lets you seamlessly switch between your landline, your VoIP service, and your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone calls.

And thanks to the system's superior noise-canceling Bluetooth headset with extended mouthpiece, you'll always sound professional. The Calisto Pro phone operates on DECT 6.0 frequency, which means that call clarity is not affected by Wi-Fi networks or home appliances, such as the microwave, and you can roam up to 300 feet from the base without suffering any degradation in sound quality.

Streamlined, Ergonomic Design
The Plantronics Calisto Pro features a streamlined and elegant look that's designed to reduce desktop clutter. The base doubles as a one-stop docking and charging station, and holds both the Bluetooth headset and the compact handset. It includes a USB port that lets you connect to your PC to sync your Outlook contacts in a matter of minutes (the handset has the capacity to hold up to 200 Outlook contact with three phone numbers each) and connect to either your Yahoo! Voice or Skype VoIP service.

The compact handset docks neatly into the base and includes all the calling features you'd expect in a phone, including caller ID, call waiting, 3-way conferencing, redial, speed dial, and more. It features a large, high-resolution LCD for easy viewing and offers up to eight hours of talk time, or 120 hours of standby time, away from the base. A flip-up waist clip lets you carry the handset with you hands-free as you roam.

The Bluetooth headset also offers up to eight hours of talk time, or 240 hours of standby time, per charge, and can be used with your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone wherever your travels take you. And because the headset's features a superior noise-canceling microphone with an extended mouthpiece, you'll never have to worry about sound quality.

Landline, VoIP or Cell--It's Your Choice

With the Calisto Pro, you can consolidate your voice communications into a single, convenient and easy-to-use system.

Rating: - Kind of Cool and Kind of NOT
I got this phone to replace my GE Dect 6.0 Cell Fusion Caller Id 2HSCordless handsets.I was looking for the same features as the Fusion with the addition of a BT headset and the ability to use Skype.What I did not realize is that the Plantronics Calisto link to the cell phone is not through the phone, but just an ordinary bluetooth headset for the cell phone.So, I can't dial calls through the cell via the calisto handset.I can't see the caller id of a cell call.You also can't be more than ...

The buttons, while of good quality, are VERY SMALL. So ... Read More

My second problem was talking "hands free".I like to type or clean or walk around while I'm on the phone.Most speaker ... Read More
