&lt;p&gt;I just use it for the very few calls I receive on my landline so a Beocom 5 is overkill so to say... Though it looks pretty nice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Repair a Beocom 4 or get a replacement handset?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232906.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2009 16:01:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:232906</guid><dc:creator>Opman</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232906.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=232906</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/Themes/beotheme1/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Saxpy:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or should I just give up and get a new handset for the old base?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m fairly certain that it is note possible to buy another single handset and register to your existing base. The BeoCom4 is supplied as a matched pair of base &amp;amp; handset.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would take the handset and base to your local dealer and get an estimate for the repair. It will be cheaper than scrapping it and buying new.&amp;nbsp;Or if&amp;nbsp;you fancy a BeoCom5 when it is lanched soon hang&amp;nbsp;on&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/05.gif" alt="Wink" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have an old Beocom 4 that has served me well for the last 6years but has now started acting up on me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The battery is not what it used to be and there is there is no ringing tone anymore apart from that it works just fine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does anyone know if B&amp;amp;O have a replacement program for these phone i.e. do they just change the PCB etc for a reasonable fee or do they actually repair it? Or should I just give up and get a new handset for the old base?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
