Exclamation Incoming calls, etc. . . some tips

I have a 01ML320 with the Motorola Timeport.

An incoming call will mute the B*se system and I get a ringer tone, while the MCS displays "CALL". After I hit "Send" and answer the call, the "CALL" display clears and is replaced by the incoming call's phone number. It's a wierd feature - getting the caller ID info after answering. I would have much preferred, for obvious reasons, to get this info before, not after answering the call.

There is no indicator, at least with the Timeport setup, of any waiting voice mail. The only indication that I have a waiting voice mail message is that my Timeport beeps at me about every 30 seconds from the cradle - not the MCS / B*ose system, but the little beeper in the phone handset itself. It's pretty faint inside the armrest compartment but I've trained my ear to listen for it. Then I select a stored memory location and dial up my PCS provider (Sprint) voice mail number. There is no muting of the audio in the ML during the beep. If I pop the phone out of the cradle (but not disconnect the cord) and open it up, it will also show the voice mail waiting symbol.

Last anomaly - with a Timeport, you can store up to four numbers in 99 storage locations, but the MCS will only display the first number stored in each of the 99 locations. The workaround is if you want to dial one of the other 3 numbers stored, for example in slot # 3, location #28 under Fred Smith, simply pop the phone out of the cradle (keeping the coil cord connected), open it up, select the third number listed under Fred Smith that you want and press "TALK" on the phone. The phone will dial the number (and actually display it on the MCS). As soon as you flip the cover closed, the MCS takes over the call and you can continue the call using the built in mic and speakers. Press "END" on the MCS to terminate the call.

Hope this is useful.
