So !!!
We have the equipment in operation since November 2010. This baby monitor is nothing for parents who live in new buildings with a lot of iron in the ceiling, or old buildings with thick walls, because the reception performance is really modest. But since we live in a flat with less thick walls and the distances (approx 20-25m) are not so very far, the whole thing is completely sufficient for us. Battery life is not the real McCoy but I've tinkered 2 spare batteries and then the thing is again OK. In addition, each battery loses happens to performance when the baby monitor is almost constantly in the charging cradle.
Furthermore, the image quality really great in complete darkness despite ausgeschaltenem nightlight is (one can recognize his child really good). During the day, the whole is even in color and if you do not mind the quality of the screen (who is expected here FullHD buy a corresponding camera and connect it to its LCD) is the image even sharp. (Like a cell phone camera of 2006)
Many complain about here, the brightness (to light) of the night light. Since I can only say "personal feeling". My wife and I will find the light too bright but not too bright. The first nights we found it uncomfortable, but not after that. Besides, what good is a lamp that is too dark. You do not have an extra light switch and you find yourself by the brightness prima cope and our son does not interfere with the lamp also. And that's, I guess, the most important thing!
In addition, we have at Audioline a charging cradle for the receiving part ordered, since we did not always drag the charger from the living room into the bedroom (always this stupid A / Aussteckerei). This has cost 15 which I think is moderate approx. Failures we have not had any, even though the device about 12-14 hours / day runs with us. (Yes, our child goes to bed in the evening at 19 o'clock, and sleeps up to 06.30Uhr by) The melodies are not used because we have a own voice have to soothe a child. However, the keys are really unfavorable attached (but happens a only 2-3 times that touching accidentally. After that one respects all columns automatically on how to tackle the unit).
All in all, the investment already good and useful, because you can be a child day & night watch good. So if you want to use with not quite as thick walls the baby monitor in a 80sqm apartment, will have his pleasure. Batteries cost not the world and that should be worth a his child already.
Alternative devices with image transfer also bring not more !!
I hope I could some doubters who are still undecided help. Amsonsten I would say try and not like just send in the carton back and back.
Anyway, we are very satisfied and have regretted the purchase at no Zeipunkt !!! Only 3 stars because of the low transmission - and battery life 5 star gibts eh very rare with me

So after more than 14 months the unit still works great. No complaint against the first day. But! The original batteries are now completely broken and keep geefühlte 20 seconds. But I've tinkered me new.
Update 04.05.2013
We operate the device still and are quite happy. However, a mistake has now crept. If the camera was (really just the camera) is switched off or disconnected from the power, they can no longer be so easily turn. One has to 10-50 times plug the AC adapter or press the On / Off button until the camera is sometimes condescended to go to. One always hears the silent right again at the Beep Einschaltversuchen a hissing sound. At some point, the camera starts up, and then all is well. As long as they will no longer be disconnected from the power !!!!!!!
Nevertheless, I find the part still OK! Draw however a Star or More !!!
