That's a pretty tall feature set!
"• Anonymous Call Authentication - Avoid automated anonymous calls by
making anonymous callers enter a series of numbers to complete their
call to you."
Anyone got this feature, now? I've never seen it. Great idea to foil
the autospammers. Same idea as putting your zip code into the credit
card gas pump.
Wonder if they can deliver all this?! They're very cagey about what
phones they sell and how much, which I assume is retail + $30 conn fee.
