Hello,
I'd like to use callcentric for my outgoing calls but still receive incoming calls through my landline. Currently I have my callcentric/obi110 setup completely separate from my landline setup (ie two different phones), but I'm wondering if it's possible to set it up in such a way to have a single physical phone meet both those needs:
* If I pick up my phone to dial it makes the call via callccentric
* If somebody calls my landline number it will ring the same phone and allow me to take the call via my landline
Though not sure what would happen if I receive a landline call while on the phone via callcentric.... perhaps it can go straight to voicemail (either administered through ob110 or using the physical answering machine that's part of my phone)?
thanks

Yes an OBi110 can do that. Just plug the landline into the LINE jack of the 110.
If there is a Callcentric call in progress when a landline call arrives you'll get a call waiting tone in your earpiece. You can have the call go to voicemail if your landline service has voicemail which kicks in on no answer. Or have the landline service divert on no answer to your Callcentric number and let Callcentric's voicemail take it.
It is technically impossible for the answering machine in your phone to answer a call while the phone part is in use on another call.
