Around here they just started dunning us with a similar package called
RSVP [Residence Service Variety Package].  

With all the cheap processing power on the market these days, it seems kind of
silly to do all this local-type stuff in your home by making the CO do it.
Anyway:

Standard:
	User transfer - transfer a call to another of your RSVP lines
	Call hold - what you'd expect
	Call pickup - snarf an incoming call from another line
	Automatic transfer - transfer on busy or no answer
	Conferencing - what you'd expect
	Intercom - call from one RSVP line to another with a digit
Standard feature package costs $8/month.  But of course you need lots of 
lines, which will bring this much higher...

Optional:
	Distinctive ring/call wait tone - Allows you to tell where an incoming
	 call originated from
	Toll restriction - block either long distance or >1 message unit calls
	Additional call pickup - create your own "blocks" of pickup groups
Optional features are an additional $3.50/month each.

The last sentence in the flyer is "Either way, you'll start a simpler, more
liveable life - today."  I wonder how hard they thought about that before 
they sent it off to the print shop???
