Your in for a big surprise! /: P One place where analogue dial-up is used is in the United States of America! At least in those out of the places where the telephone company is waaay too bloody lazy to put down (at the least) DSL cable.
I live in Hawai'i, in an out of the way place, with only Dial-Up for internet. Wireless would be an option, if wasn't so expensive to set up. Netwaiting is a windows program for Dial-Up that notifies me about incoming calls and allows me to take the call. Btw, what does PSTN stand for? And what exactly is VoIP? Sorry, I'm fairly new to all this.
