Can you set up 'speed dial' for frequently called numbers?

YES of course. You enter the names and numbers in the "phone book" and when you need to make a call you have just to press "yes" next to the name. Very easy.

Yes. However, that may be more a function of your service than the phone. But the instructions for setting up the voice mail and speed dial options are clear and easy to follow.

There are two ways to use the speed dial numbers you store on the push buttons that normally are used to dial (that is numbers 0 through 9). You can set the phone to immediately use the stored number but that will interfere with normally dialed call such as when dialing a number for someone other than on speed dial. The way I set it up was to allow the buttons for 0 through 9 to be used normally. Then push the speed dial button and then the stored number to call the number represented by the picture. Just requires pushing one button before the button for the stored number. Not hard even for my parents who are 94.

No you can't dial regular #. You can answer all incoming calls, but only dial 2. Wish it could dial out thru voice and had a way to flash other incoming calls. My Grandmother loves it. She talks on it all day like a regular phone... That is, if you call her and she's not already on the other line.

Yes there is you have to set the phone to also Speed Dial to call long distance

No, the number you dial is not repeated but you have a redial button which will dial to the number you just dialed.

You can program any number you want to dial up to about 18-20 numbers. Also easy to delete and change.

It's in the little book of directions that comes with the phone.1. Pick up the handset from the phone base2. Press and release the "program" button on the base unit"3. Press in the number in you want to save3. Press the speed dial button you want to program - hang upRinse repeat for the other 10 speed dial buttons

You can put numbers into memory of the unit which is a slow process. There is also a location for a frequently called number which is easy. Otherwise, dial on your cell and then use it to speak

I don't believe so. This is a very simplistic device which is great for both 800 numbers and unwanted incoming calls. I don't see anywhere the option you mention

Believe you can assign 911 to a specific number key following "Speed Dial" instructions in manual. Then pressing that number key and holding it will dial 911.

No. You can quickly use phone book stored numbers and dial with a single button. No speed dial in the conventional sense. Personally, I never use speed dial so this isn't an issue for me.

Yes. You can also tell it which line to default to when you dial out, and this can be set on a per-handset basis.

Not exactly like a cell phone's speed dial. But there is a shortcut to jump to entries in the phonebook that start with a certain letter. To get to James for example, press 5 which takes you to the first J phonebook entry. Then you press talk to call the number in that entry. So it takes as few as 2 key depressions. Hope this helps.

On an Asterisk based system . No... It requires you to dial *97 or program the message button to call that.

No, a speed dial function is not available but it does have a directory that can store 3,050 names and numbers.

Yes, it does. See "5.5 to Preset Phone numbers for Speed Dial" at the top of page 28 of the user manual.
