| Interesting Phone, email, internet, global address book: it sounds like a smartphone that only works around your house. Just like the iPhone, but you can't take it with you. Now they just need to let customers purchase and listen to music on the new device to make it complete.  | |

Or to look up a recipe, while hubby and the kids are hogging all the other computers.
I wouldn't need it but some might.
Why did people pay for the "princess" phone? (back in the day  ) | |

| Triple Play is out My $99 Triple Play (Phone Internet TV) is no longer available unless I pay $139, so I am going to go back to Bell/ATT or possibly Dish Network.
This almost smart phone is a drag. Who wants landline phone anyway? I need it to open the gates at my community, otherwise I would just use my mobile 24/7. | |

Your community can't link to a cell phone? My g/f works for a gated apartment community, and AFAIK, they can link the phones to a cell phone (although it's not a gate really, it's the 'doorbell' type phone at the outside of each complex... | |

| its basicly CDV Self Install Kit. which is just what we dont need, people already have enough trouble setting up their own cable modem.
Hopefully the Deployments are only allowed to areas that have minimal RF related trouble calls, because one of the biggest reasons to need a tech for CDV was to check the RF.

| What about caps? So... is it a VoIP phone or a wireless (cellular?) phone? If it is a VoIP phone then I am assuming you will need internet service with them... and if that's the case then what about caps? Will it count against caps or not? Where's that pesky net neutrality law when you need it. | |

| Video Conversation? Now if the service had video conversation this would be a breakthrough, but why would anyone want to pay more for something they get over the internet that they already paying for it just dumb. Well let just say video conversation between Comcrap costumer at less it would be a better service. | |
