  Hmm, yep, that makes sense. So I might be getting MSN in a
  fashion after all - ie. instead of 10 numbers I get 3, but 
  with - possibly - full ability to use them anywhere. 
  I was really only after 3 numbers, I have no particular need
  to run a PBX or anything like that.
  I think I'll opt to be at home next Wednesday when the BT guy
  comes round to do the install.

  I suspect this is true too - but of course I'd want to have my
  business calls coming into one phone, and my private calls on
  the other.


  Thanks for the suggestions/ideas/discussion.
