Re: Paying customer wakes up to CF alarm every morning

Yes, even DSC has a unit as I understand it. However, the issue with most
customers seems to be more related to the cost of the equipment versus the
$20 monthly they save by giving up their landline....(yes, yes, I
know....don't say it.....you're preaching to the converted....).

I've been been giving alarm company feedback to an Ottawa development
company that now has a new TCP/IP unit available for hands on examination,
and that promises to make TCP/IP connections both more reliable and
inexpensive enough that they will have a definate residential application. I
get to see the device "hands on" this week coming.

They also have a website...www.lobenninc.com....

I'd be interested in any feedback from the group before I go to see this
equipment; ie: questions you feel would be applicable to ask that are not
directly answered on the website.

I expect this sort of application will circumvent the VoIP issue as opposed
to solving it..
