None here and none that I have heard of.

under normal circumstances these shouldn't be an interaction, but
you're not the first person i've heard suggesting there might
be issues. i'd raise it on boards.ie - there are some good
wireless troubleshooters in there. you might have to wait a day
or two to get a reply though. in the meantime, if the problem
is very persistent unplug A and see if B still has a problem etc.
i'm sure you know the drill. =)

Interference can certainly happen. Cordless phones often work in the
2.4Ghz range, which is the same range that older wireless routers
(802.11b/g) work in too. That said, my wireless router is pretty close
to my cordless phone, and I don't have any issues.

Some newer cordless phones work in the 5.8Ghz range, while newer
wireless routers (802.11n) can work in either the 2.4Ghz or the 5.0Ghz
range, so there's little chance of overlap with that combo.
