    I have a Southwestern Bell FF7700 (or is it 1700?). Anyway, it is
    (or was) advertised as having 1500 foot range. I have used it all the
    way out to the parking lot at my apartment complex, probably over 1500
    feet from the base unit. It gets a bit noisy at that distance, but is
    definitely useable. This phone has a keypad and speaker phone in the
    base unit and is advertised as "actually two phones in one".
