I'm on the second week of my 30-day trial period now and cannot imagine life without The CallWave Internet Answering Machine anymore. Picture this: You're glued to the internet, doing whatever you're doing. Suddenly, the computer rings. One ring-a-ding, two-ring-a-dings. Your eyes are wandering to the upper right-hand corner of your screen, where the CallWave box is located. It tells you WHO is calling and gives you the option to answer immediately, or listen to the message and return the call later. If it's your neighbor's voice thundering through the speakers with a complaint about your dog, you'd probably choose to turn the volume down and let CallWave take a message for you. However, if it's your spouse, future spouse or mother, you'd be better off to click "answer call" and talk to them on the spot! By the way, you'll have a choice as to WHERE your want to answer the call... from the current line, your cell phone, etc. The options are endless and I have yet to figure them all out. I do know that it blocks telemarketers. Hurray, hurray.

Go ahead, click on "Free Trial" below and spend the Holidays with a guilt-free conscience. After all, nobody in the house will miss a phone call if you dare to sneak away to check your e-mail or surf the net a bit.

While you're at it, grab the free fax line too. I just discovered that feature yesterday and can't wait to tell my sister... she's always wanting to fax me stuff. Come to think of it, I might regret giving her my fax number!!
