| 180227 | 2003-10-04 01:07:00 | Hi. I remeber reading an article a while back about a system (it was a piece of hardware and a program to go with it) that connected to your phone line, and when you were on interent (dial up) if someone rang - it told you on the PC and you could disconect, get them to take a message and have it emailed to you, or just "block" it - and stay on the net. It cost about $200 - and you didn't pay any fees. Can anyone remeber wot it was called - and where i can get it (they had a website) Thanks |

| 180234 | 2003-10-04 05:45:00 | DSE have the units, $149. Cheaper than the $199 in the link. Catalogue XH3491 However none of these devices can or will work unless you subscribe to "call waiting" service from Telecom. Without "call waiting" there is nothing that can alert you to an incoming call, as your line is completely unavailable to anyone trying to ring in. |
