Hmmmm.. Not sure what these ST and NT things are... My phone company has
supplied me with a rether large box that I connect to my ISDN line. This box is
what handles my two phone numbers and supplies me with an analog line to let me
use my old phone equipment. I've come to the conclusion, that this box (called
NTAB) will make my life much easier and is everything I need. Well, except a TA
that is...

The usual cost to get an ISDN line here is Sweden, is about $150 - $200 (don't
knw the exact value of a $US for the moment so I count that one $ = 10 Swedish
Kronor).
