Okay, here's the link. There's a link to the rebate form right under the amazon.com price.
Before you buy one of these, I should point out that these phones are pretty low-end and aren't all that great. Unless you need a cordless phone at the lowest possible price and don't care about the quality, I would look at another phone. I really like the Panasonic KX-TG25xx series myself.
I have a Panasonic, and I really love it. It has almost everything you could want in a phone, except for one thing -- no spare battery charger. It's a NiCD battery, so if you store it in the cradle all the time, the battery life quickly drops to nothing. The proper thing to do is to use the phone until the battery dies, then set it in the charger overnight and let it recharge fully. The only problem with that plan is that the battery usually dies when I need the phone for something, and there's no spare battery.
I was researching ways to solve this problem when I used http://www.energizerbatteryfinder.com to find the correct replacement (or spare) battery for my phone. The Energizer-brand replacement batteries cost around $13 in most of the places I found that had them in stock.
When I saw the phone deal on Amazon, I ran the Uniden phone through the Energizer wizard and whaddya know? They use the same replacement battery, the Energizer P-7302. Problem solved!
I ordered one of these Uniden phones. For $9.88 (AR, plus tax, plus shipping) I get a phone that I will never use, a spare battery for my Panasonic, and a way to charge that spare battery. Whichever battery I'm not using will go into the Uniden phone in the charger until it's fully charged. When the in-use battery dies I'll just switch them and keep using the Panasonic. Incidentally, the Uniden comes with a spare charging cradle, so if you aren't going to use the phone for anything it won't take up much desk space as a spare battery charger. 😉
Overall a pretty good deal, especially if you combine it with some other items to get free shipping or you have an Amazon coupon lying around that you can use.
