     Another common item is the "touch-tone" service - $.98/month . It
   probably takes NET a special effort to monitor lines without this and
   deny them the touch-tone service. Has anyone tried to use a touch-tone
   phone on a line WITHOUT a touch-tone service?  I'd love to find out that
   technically the current system can't block .....


We don't pay for touch tone service at my house, but have aftermarket
phones capable of generating touch tones, that work fine.  Charging 
for tone service is such a ripoff.  I can't believe that it would cost them
more to supply the service.  Wouldn't eliminating pulse dial altogether result
in better efficiency/greater savings for all ?
