Yes, the Philips DECT uses 2 rechargeable AA's. I threw away the NiCd ones after a few months and replaced them with a couple of GP 1300 NiMH ones which are still going strong.

thanks

I have a Onis 2 died on me after 1.2 yrs. Cannot sync and the handset gave me crap on the lcd.. I give up on philips heard so much problem with their dec phone. My friend who bought the onis 2 with me also had the same problem a couple of months later... bad QC man.

I can't agree more.
The Onis (and predecessors) were really bad.

Let's hope that the new generation of phones (Zenia, blah blah) will have better quality.

They boast new technologies (that may be crap, I don't know), like Fast Antenna Selection Technology (FAST), dual antennas, cs2 sound system.... blah blah.
