Asterisk for POTS users

[Mark Komarinski]

I just dropped a wad ($100) of cash on a new phone with an "integrated
answering device".  I see that more and more people are using Asterisk to set
up a PBX, but is anyone using this as a way of acting as an answering
machine?

(insert rant here about when I pick up the phone, I darn well expect to
hear a dialtone and Comcast will never have the reliability as Verizon).

(insert second rant about FBO, FXO, SIP, and no "Asterisk for non-telco
employees" documentation)
