Oh, false advertising! It is not possible to know this until you buy the unit, but the $65 rebate is not available unless you activate with Vonage. So the unit is on its way back to the store, still in its shrink wrap. Never even made it home. Not worth experimenting with it without the rebate, as I can get a Sipura or a Linksys PAP-2-NA for not much more than $65 + $10 taxes.
