For Sale:  Plantronics LiteSet Cordless Phone

	- hands-free operation while talking
		- the portable unit can be clipped to a belt or put into
		  pocket (size is about the same as a cassette case)
	- portable unit contains full keypad with:
		- power on/off, mute, and redial buttons
		- power on indicator LED
		- battery low indicator LED
	- the entire speaker/microphone unit (attached to the portable unit)
	  is about the size of a small pencil - it simply "hangs" off your ear
	- base unit can page the portable unit

	This is a pretty handy unit if you like hands-free operation - for 
example, you can be on the phone with someone and be typing with both hands 
(comfortably). [Also, a purely fun but useless "feature" of this unique phone
is that you can walk up to someone (closeby - i.e. down the hall) while
having a conversation on the phone - or you can call someone while
standing next to him/her.]

---> asking price: Well, I haven't got any idea what a new one goes for these
		   days so I'll have to make a best guess....of $75.  In any
		   case, I will consider reasonable offers.
