I am assuming that by conference you want just 3 (external) party conf since thats all the lines you got, Panasonic Digital systems can do up to 8 party conf on their prop phones. Panasonic does have a voicemail system. Being a certified Panasonic dealer I can tell you that for what you are looking I can sell it to you new for less than $3000.00 Here are some links (again for new): http://www.ablecomm.com/bnekxphsyshi.html $434 new free shipping. Includes some stupid internal voicemail. Or this one again new: http://panasonic-ablecomm.stores.yahoo.net/sa2pnprwikxt.html Includes three prop phones. as well as the same internal voicemail.
