Re: HomeVision & Video Output



On the topic of cost, if you are thinking of buying a Caller ID unit, =
why
not just buy a "Hayes Accura V90 56K Spk/Phone ISA Int Modem" at
=
=A370.49
(inc.VAT) instead.
The unit you mentioned is =A369 (not sure if that includes VAT) =
according to
their site.
The Solwise unit was around =A370 direct from Solwise.
