  2. Two solutions! by bluecap · · Score: 1 · on Home Phone System That Syncs To Computer?

    Timothy, your question does carry a hint of mac-centricity. So I'll give you two options for that platform which might both interest you even in combination. I've known Phlink for several years and the Siemens solution is new: 1. Siemens DECT phones now allow synching with the Mac's address book via bluetooth. http://gigaset.com/shc/0,1935,hq_en_0_171451_rArNrNrNrN_parent%253A171447,00.html and 2. OvoLab's excellent Phlink allows you to perform all kinds of phone automation even (or maybe unfortunately) without being a VoIP solution. Here you can use in-built workflows, apple script or develop automator flows to your heart's content for calling, accepting/rejecting/logging calls, answering machine recording, notification, faxing, etc. http://www.ovolab.com/phlink/index.php Enjoy!

    Do you have a keyboard or mouse hooked up to it?

    You got two replies already saying "no," and I'll be the third. VNC works through a restart. The only things plugged into it are power, ethernet, and miscellaneous USB devices (iMic, hub, APC UPS monitor, and telephone adapter).

    I haven't used it, but you could try remote tunes

  5. expect "home on ipod" to return to OS X by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Think Secret Predicts Sub-$500 Headless Mac

    Remember the suddenly yanked "home on iPod" feature? Expect it to reappear soon, with a bit more flexibility. Perhaps "home on iServe" instead.

    Separate thought: Ovolab should start rmping up production on their http://www.ovolab.com/phlink/Phlink Telephone Adapter

  6. AirTunes + netTunes + this + Phlink by jamie · · Score: 1 · on Think Secret Predicts Sub-$500 Headless Mac
    An awesome "proper audio output" would be the AirPort Express. That's a $130 hardware device, the size of an AC adapter, plugs into both the wall and your network, and its output is digital fiber optics directly into your stereo. (If your stereo doesn't have a digital input, it has an 1/8" jack too. Actually it's the same port, it's pretty neat.) Oh, and it extends the range of your Base Station too.

    I bought an AirPort Express for Christmas and plugged it into the home-theater surround sound and it sounds great and works just like it's supposed to. I'm thinking about buying a cheap used iMac to run iTunes so we can close up the laptop and let the music keep playing, but I'm with you -- if a cheap new Mac will be available, of course I'll get that instead. And if we do that, netTunes would be the logical way to control iTunes on the headless server. That'd be an ideal setup.

    The other thing that headless Mac will be running is Phlink. A home menu-based voicemail service that takes messages or faxes and emails me the MP3s or JPEGs is pretty fun. If I'm getting the Mac to sit in the basement anyway, I can justify $150 for a really fancy answering machine...

  7. Ovolab Phlink by Axello · · Score: 1 · on Screening for Fax Calls with Panther?

    I recently bought the Phlink telecom adapter , which seems to have the functionality of the old Geoport adapter. The accompanying software can recognise DTMF codes and can sample sound (i.e. an answering machine), which it can send to you by email. I do not know if the developer Ovolab has plans for fax functionality, but maybe it can supply an Apple event structure to 'wake' the built-in fax server for Panther if it detects a fax tone. Axel
