Panasonic 2 lines cordless telephone expandable

[MH]

I am trying to decide between the 2.4 and the 5.8 gigahertz models. Reading
reviews the 2.4 has battery issues but those can be replaced with nimh
batteries. The 5.8 is missing the caller id on the base, which is important
when the cordless is flying around the house and only the base is in sight.
I am told that I do not need 5.8 in my house being that I had 900 megahertz
until now without interference. The newer model (5.8) can be gotten for
cheaper than the older one. Does anyone have experience between the 2 and
have any input? Is it true that 5.8 is sometimes more static? Thanks

MH--I get static on my Uniden 5.8 Ghz system. Also, the handset range
from the main unit stand is not as good as the old 900Mhz.
