I am looking for a phone to connect to a traditional POTS line that when called will auto-answer and allow handsfree talk. Up to $150 is OK. Anyone seen such a product?

The old lucent 8110 sets had an auto answer button They supplied the phione with a blank cover to remove the button if needed.
you can got support.avaya.com and look at the users guide for it.
 
I actually have a couple... took me a while to figure out what the 'auto' button was for **sheepish grin**
 
nice to learn something new ,

do a google search they are availble refurbed
 
Old thread, in forum that isn't going to mind though.

What I ended up buying was a "Doorphone" sold by:

The product itself is quite good. All it needs is Tip/Ring of a typical telco line. You dial that tel number and the Door phone auto answers becoming a duplex handsfree call.

While not a solution that I ended up deploying, I am still satisfied... the product does what I expected.

What I would like improved: If transmit volume from the product back to the other end was better, the product would have a lot more applications. But when used at a door or foyer which is the application it is designed for, the transmit volume is not a problem...in fact, it is pretty good.
