As I'm using Google Voice, I waffled for a week on what to do about 911. Called the local 911 administrator, and she kindly gave me a number which rings on the desk of the 911 operator. This was just a local number, so she said I would have to immediately let the 911 dispatcher know I was calling about an emergency, otherwise they would think I was just calling about about "whatever" from the local precinct maybe concerning business. I went into the advanced configuration of my Obi110 and chickened out. Those crazy strings had me worried I would mess everything up, and mind you, I build my own computers. So I decided in the end to go with Anveo for a mere 12.00 a year. The Anveo test of dialing 933 worked, but I never actually dialed 911, not even in the 20 years I've been living in my house. Then two days ago, it happened. We received a reverse 911 call about a maniac in the canyon below our nieghborhood. Awesome. Secure the perimeter, lock and load...you know the rest. Ok, I guess that's all there was to it in the end, but Anveo pulled through. Reverse 911 worked and I'm sure it will now work the other way if I call them. Congrats Anveo and Obi.
