The advantage in my (old) house was that there were only two phone
jacks and I wanted extensions in several places. With the
multi-handset setups you can put a charging jack anywhere you want.
You don't need a phone jack there. I know there are some cheaper
cordless phones that allow you to use a remote charging base, but this
way I got them all at once.
