- I've used the Public Phone 2000's in several areas of the country on
- multiple occasions. The terminals seem to work fine at 2400 bps with
- a decent but not great vt100 emulation. I was able to use vi and elm,
- etc with it.
-
- The only thing I don't like about them, is even though I use my AT&t
- Calling card which normally gets billed with my home phone for regular
- calls, these calls get billed separately, and I get a bill directly
- from AT&T for them.
-
- Other than that, I've had very good experience with the phones ...
