He was wondering... (i) If a fax machine purchased in the US would be compatible with the Phillipine phone system, and (ii) If there are any voice/fax switches which do not make the caller wait ten seconds while the switch decides whether it's a fax or voice call? (Any brand recommendations would be greatly appreciated as well.) Charlie Mingo mingo@cup.portal.com
