Indeed. But if I only had the one * server which itself registered to my carriers... > 2) It's easy for both incoming and outgoing to separate business from > personal calls. (ie line1 is personal, line2 is business) Yeah. Given this is a home office phone though, that I even route the house calls to it is just a convenience for when I am in the home office. IOW, if I'm in the office, I almost always want to answer it vs. if I am at a personal/house phone, indeed, I may not want to answer business calls, but this is not the case... > 3) It's easy for a two line phone to register to two different accounts > on * and then subsubscribe to two different MWI's on different VM > boxes Ahhh. Now this is an interesting possibility. > (again goes back to seperating business from personal or your VM > from your significate other's VM) Ahhh. Indeed. This use case is worth considering. Although, really, I want to migrate to VM in IMAP so that I don't even (have to) use the phone to know there is VM or listen to/delete it. I would use my e-mail client which is my preferred interface. In any case, this one is an interesting benefit. Not sure I'm convinced enough yet though. That said, thanks for the input Lyle, I really appreciate your thoughts on that. b.
