Does anyone have experience with either of these monitors? I live next door to my sister so I want to be able to run to her house for a few minutes and know if my baby needs me. I really like the idea of the vibrating feature on the Fisher Price, but just saw that the new First years one has a range of 1500 ft. We have 2.4 gz cordless phones in the house if that makes a difference with interference.
Any feedback would be appreciated!

-First years Clear and Near 2.4 Ghz rechargeable monitor. About 70.00. Range up to 1500 ft.

-Fisher Price 900 mh vibrating monitor. Up to 1000 ft. About 30.00 at babiesrus with promo

We have the FP vibrating monitor, and it works for more than 1000 feet with us. I can run several houses down my street and still hear through the monitor, although it does get more staticy (is this a word?) the further you go from the house. I live in the burbs, so your mileage may vary, depending on the environment in/around your house.
