A GW2K catalog I recieved says the 28.8 Telepath has full-duplex speakerphone 
(no mention of voice mail). A sales rep confirmed my reservation, that this is 
a type.  The modem has voice mail only.

The WinNEWS letter I received recently talks about Microsoft Phone being 
available from leading modem mfgs.  "MS Phone is a powerful and easy-to-use 
software-only speakerphone and answering machine made possible by new 
communications technologies available only in MS Win 95 operating systems and 
by new, voice-enabled modems.  Mfgs offering MS Phone products and systems 
include Creative Labs, Diamond Multimedia Systems, Micron Electronics, and 
Micro Computer Products."  I'm wondering if the voice-enabled Telepath could be 
used with this SW and maybe a soundcard/speaker system?

GW2K sales has told me they are waiting for reliable voice and speakerphone 
capable cards.

Maybe I should save the $$ if ordering a GW2K system and buy a modem with both 
features elswhere.
