Re: Magnum Alert 900 and Touch Tone Dialing

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Someone was telling me yesterday (dunno if it's technically true or not)
that the dependability of VoIP depends a lot on what type of network it's
on; public or private. That Vonage is going on the public net and is less
likely to be reliable than VoIP over private net like a cable company. Not
sure I fully understand but just throwing this one out there for comment.

| It's not, the problem is VOIP has no set standards so something that works
