Iain,

 Thanks for the repsonse but you are kidding me right? From what I can see
if I bought this phone and two remotes my outlay would be close to $800
US. This is NOT a home device unless you have nothing better to do with
your money!

You can buy a lot of single line wireless phones and FXS devices for that
amount!
