If it's reasonably priced and doesn't require DSL (can just connect via LAN or wLAN) I'd try it, even with POTS. I'm currently using a Mac mini with Phone Valet as a family message center and it's way overkill. Looking at VZ's online tour it looks like it could be a nice family message hub. You can also answer the phone on an optional FiOS TV remote that doubles as a handset. Verizon site says it's a 1.9GHz phone? -- Macintosh Users Group Serving the Inland Empire |

| i think today people would be more accepting of a central control device, as now digital everything is more accepted as is home networking more a part of everyday life. the real icing on the cake would be if they had a way to link this in with your verizon wireless, so if you forgot to tell the DVR to record something you could use your moble and tell your FiOS DVR to record the show. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports |
