So what you're saying is that you built yourself a Neuros LINK? (That's almost identical hardware)

The company regularly shows in the vendor's room at Origins in June. The tables seem to be of a quality worthy of the price tag, but I agree that it's too steep for most.

Looks like these would fit the bill:

I have at least one friend who set up Asterisk for their home system, and got SIP phones where hardware phones are needed, and put software phones and headsets on all the computers.

I've not played with the free (as in beer) solutions, but the semi-free business versions (Trixbox, Digium) do support a shared speed-dial list. Plus you gain intercom, paging, music on hold, etc.

Er... Sorry. It was the CA version that opened in 1967. The one in Florida was 1973.

I always get Disneyland and Disney World backwards.

The Florida version of the ride opened in March, 1967.

It seems like Apple has something against implementing any Xiph codec... FLAC and Vorbis support in iTunes is nonexistent, and even with the QuickTime plugin, iTunes still doesn't have proper tagging support. And now refusing to add Theora support in Safari?

Perhaps someone on the Xiph board did something to one of Apple's Media guys when they were kids or something?

Depends on your carrier. T-Mobile doesn't charge roaming in Hawaii, but they do in Alaska.

And did you ever notice how many commercials say "void in Alaska and Hawaii"? Or "In the continental US only"? Lots of business treat AK and HI differently because of the separation in geography.

I do.

And I know that when I signed up for Alltel 8 years ago, Alaska and Hawaii were not part of their coverage area. So apparently they didn't.

The inverted problem is when it gets reported on the wrong person because the SSN wasn't used as deliniation...

Like when a friend of mine had his son's bad credit card debt on his credit record, because they both had the same name and address and didn't look at the middle initials.
