    P3 Netbook vs z340

    Huh? Sprint and Purple are partners, not Sprint and ZVRS. And that's 4G wireless.

    Cell phone cooks up trouble

    It's doubtful that the cell phone radio waves are doing it, or else it would happen all the time. It's most likely the phone itself. For instance, years ago, I could make my computer monitor (non-flat screen) go on a fritz for a moment whenever my pager went off - and it was pretty close to...

    FBI Warrants against two VRS companies and other companies

    This is not the fastest way to get an interpreter. When you hang up, you are sent to "the back of the line" again. So that just means the person who dialed after you will instead get your place. The ony time you want to hang up is if you have technical problems, like somehow your internet...

    FBI Warrants against two VRS companies and other companies

    Did you read the two links to ICSD and Hawkins? They are SPECIFICALLY alleging VRS abuse, not TRS/IP. I think the parts about "interpreters" "VI" and "privacy screen" make it quite apparent it's VRS.

    Clarification Rumor of $.29 per Minute on MVP usage ?

    Hearing people who call your 10-digit number for VRS may be charged long distance fees. This is not related to the MVP - this is related entirely to the telephone system that has been around for 100 years. No VRS company can control that. Point to point calls, that use the internet, do not...

    Text Message to computer??

    No. There is no way, to my knowledge, where a cell phone user with ONLY a text message service (SMS) can communcate TO a PC, unless the PC has its own SMS number, which is extremely rare (and costs quite a bit of money to set up). A PC user can contact a cell phone user via SMS. There are...

    Abortion Doctor Shot Dead

    Killing Dr. Tiller has SAVED NOBODY. Don't you get it? People who want an abortion will find a way to do it, illegally or not. All your "pro-lifing" does is make it riskier for the would-be mothers to survive their act of terminating the baby. It's not pro-life. It's pro-"I want your...

    Too Many VP Numbers!

    It's not impossible. It's just not currently implemented in any way with today's relay architecture. But it's absolutely possible with SIP to have multiple devices ringing and then when one is picked up, the other devices are no longer ringing.

    Do you guys use CSDVRS Z-340?

    I think the intent of the FCC's ruling on that was to prevent carriers such as Sorenson or Snap from entrenching themselves by telling their users, "Oh, don't register for a real number - keep using the numbers we assigned you way back. They won't work with anyone else's systems, so be sure to...

    Purple Netbook unleashed

    I don't understand what you're trying to say. Either I can call any and receive calls from any VRS provider on P3, or I can't. If I can get my IP address to my VRS provider of choice, and the protocol is compatible (H.323) then everything should be fine. Now, if the P3 is using another...

    MVP blunder!!!!

    This official petition to the FCC is serious business. These are heavy allegations that Sorenson is asserting and if the FCC chooses to investigate it, Purple may just find themselves on the wrong side of the law. Knowing Sorenson's track record, and their penchant for having high-priced...

    Purple annual report

    I wouldn't say this isn't NEW, but it isn't old news either. Companies take time to analyze their business, write the report, then release it after double checking everything. It's only been available to the public for a little over a month now. Companies don't turn on a dime - so their...

    CapTel Phones

    Definitely try out WebCapTel first if you're hesitant about the accuracy and stuff. Otherwise, go to CapTel - The Captioned Telephone - The telephone that displays written, word-for-word captions of everything the caller says and click on "Availability" on the left to see what else is available...

    Using WebTel to listen to answering machines?

    I think the feature for using WebCapTel to get answering machine messages is not available at this time. But you can contact CapTel customer service to confirm - captel@captelmail.com.

    My Short Video Review on HOVRS MVP

    Now the next test would be to see if multiple MVP users in a WiFi hotspot like Panera's could make and receive video calls. I'm sure two users would max out the bandwidth capabilities of the WiFi router.
