I am thinking about getting PacBell ISDN when I move. DSL is not available at that location because it is too far from the CO and cable modems are not going there either because the apartment complex will have a private cable company. With ISDN do you also need a second phone line if you need to use an analog modem in the same PC to send faxes or connect to other computers via a modem? I intend to have the ISDN line be my only line and also use it for all my voice calls. Are voice calls more expensive on an ISDN line? Are there rates for all the extra services like call forwarding, call return, directiry assistance etc. the same for ISDN as it is for regular analog residential service? If I make a long distance call using AT&T or a 10-10 service, do these minutes on the phone get billed or counted by PacBell ISDN also? How well does PacBell's ISDN service and ISP service work? Their rates are about $33 per month for 200 hours of evening and weekend use of the line plus $21.95 for unlimited ISP service. Since I would usually only be at home during evenings and weekends anyway, that restriction would not usually be a problem.
