I can't seem to find a VOIP provider that's pay-per-call (what I want) vs pay-per-month (what I don't want). At least I don't want to pay more than a few bucks/month for how little I'll use it. But I think I just came up with my solution. A cheap ~$60 temperature monitor that uses standard phone service, coupled with Magic Jack. The Magic Jack Plus is $70 up-front and $30/year; not bad. I'll look some more for other options first. > What would you do IF there is an alert?Do you have someone who could respond > that is nearby and is able to fix whatever is wrong? Yes; I have a winter care-taker who happens to live next-door. ~ David -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
