I think I read the Same Statement on their Web Page or somewhere and The Way
I Interpreted it was that It will (assuming you have call waiting)
disconnect you, let you answer the phone call, and then when you're done
talking go back to where you were. I don't know for sure it seems like a
pretty vague statement, doesn't it?
