Summary: Call me, I dare ya.
Review: Bye Bye telemarketers. The only way to get through to me now is if I'm talking to friend and I get a beep and I click over to the new caller. When This happens it could be anyone calling. Otherwise only the people I want to hear from get through. I did use a second answering machine so friends could leave messages when I"m gone.

Summary: No more annoying phone calls.
Review: I got this to stop telemarketing calls and am happy to say that it does so quite effectively. It's really a home pbx that sends incoming calls to your answering machine before they ring your phone. If you have given the caller a two digit code number he can enter it and the Trivox will then automatically switch the call to your phone and only then will it ring, otherwise the caller can leave a message and you will not be disturbed. There is the one thing I dislike about it, if you do not answer it will not send the call back to the answering machine, I think I'll have to put in another one. But it stops computer and hand dialed telemarketers, wrong numbers, fax machines, and cranks. It can also be used with other Trivoxs to form a home phone network for other lines, faxes, computers, etc, it's more versatile than what I have it for. Installation takes 3 minutes, and it can be switched off.
I don't think it will work if you use the phone company's answering service.
I no longer need Caller ID (...) or Privacy Plus (...) so it will quickly pay for itself.
Another plus is that no one can tell that it is there, and I'd advise you to tell as few as possible about it.

Summary: Call any phone from your house from another extension!
Review: I have been using Avinta's Trivox for about 2+ years and love it. I have 7 units throughout my 2 story house (plus a basement). I no longer have to scream for my kids to get the phone and I don't interrupt anyone when I open the phone and someone is using the line. Let me explain... you put a Trivox any place you want to transfer calls to and from and connect a regular phone or wireless phone (any brand) to it. You assign each box a number ( I used #11 for the basement, 21 kitchen... 31, 32, 33 for each bedroom, etc). When a call is received I can transfer the call to any other box, or have the call ring in all of them (#99). I can even use them as intercomms (no outside call is required to ring any extension). If the line is busy - the interrupting party hears three tones - the other people on the line will hear only one tone - thus knowing they will be interrupted if required (I normally hang up and don't interrupt once I hear the three tones)
Avinta has other uses but the best one is the one that avoids any phone calls to ring next to my bed. If I'm sleeping I don't want any telemarketing nor any calls to ring next to my bed. Only someone inside my house can ring my extension!!!It's the greatest phone product since slice bread. I saved a ton of money versus having to buy a PBX system with their non-standard expensive phones per each extension. BTW I can have my computer answer its extension and patch my phone call via the internet for free! You know, one day all phones will have their technology built inside!
