well i have about 4 cordless phones in my house, and only if they are used in one particular room in the house does it really cause havoc w/ my wireless LAN.

I have noticed no interference from either of the 2 microwaves.  An additional item that may be a problem are baby monitors.   I noticed at my sister-in-law's house that her (video) baby monitor shows lots of interference when the microwave runs or when a cordless phone is active in its immediate vicinity.  

But the frequency range is pretty broad if i'm not mistaken, so there is potentially room for them all to live happily together in harmony.  And i'm sure the local 'geography' of your house contributes greatly as well, just positioning of the wireless devices, line of sight, etc.
