You do realise that you have to point the phones at each other dont you ?

IR is pretty sensitive to that.

I normally use with the PC instead of another handset
and when its setup properly XP beeps and claims it
can see another computer near it etc.

IR sensor is on the right-hand side of the handset, almost parallel
with the 'end' key.

You will need Bluetooth to do that.
