Robert,

Weird as it sounds, that 100-foot phone wire is still pretty cheap and easily 
available. But you know your situation better than I.

Dave

  yes, but then I would have to pay someone to install a phone jack near my pc 
plus the cost of running the line. the designer of my condo must have been worn 
out by the time he got to designing mine. there are only two phone jacks here. 
One in the bedroom the other in the kitchen.  I guess I could buy a hundred 
foot of phone cable and run it around to my desk.

    Robert,

    AT the rate of $4.95 per month you've bought a simple fax modem in about 5 
months.

        Rob,

        I use the Fax Printer available with my XP Pro installation, and a 
phone line connected to my PC. I can create a document in MS-Word, for example, 
then send it to the printer called "fax" and after giving it a phone number it 
gets sent.

        Faxes received are collected as bitmap files that I can retrieve from a 
folder and OCR, as well as print.

        Dave

          It is $4.95 but I spoke too soon. the site is accessible until you 
need to upload your document from your computer then you're sent to a page that 
jaws cannot read. I'm waiting to hear from the company to see how they wil 
address this complaint.

            the lowest price I found was $4.95 per month.
            are you sure it was 95 cents per month?

              Ignore my last post. I found an online fax service that cost $.95 
per month for 50 outgoing and 100 incoming faxes. this gives you 20mb of 
storage. You can purchase more space if necessary. the site is very accessible.
              the address is:
