Want to have hands-free telephone
conversations on your computer? Phone Plus is a telephone dialer, speakerphone,
and contact manager with full Caller ID support. The Caller ID and Speakerphone
features are both optional. Organize names, numbers, addresses, and other
information in multiple user-defined phone books, and dial using a standard
Data/Fax modem. Phone Plus integrates with the Windows Dialing Properties
dialog. This gives you automatic number formatting for different dialing
locations, and support for calling cards and long distance provider prefixes.
Phone Plus can auto-redial busy numbers, and can keep a log of both incoming and
outgoing calls. Your phone books and the call log can be printed and exported.
If you have a Caller ID capable modem, Phone Plus can display a callers name and
number in a pop-up window. Other Caller ID features include: Announce callers
using any SAPI compliant text-to-speech engine. Phone Plus can speak the
caller's name. Or a custom wave file can be played for any caller. This helps
you decide whether to answer a call or not without having to run and check your
Caller ID box. Phone Plus can automatically answer certain calls, including
Blocked and Out of Area calls, play a pre-recorded message to the caller, and
then hang up. Or get rid of any caller by clicking the Zap Caller button. When
you are really busy, a Do Not Disturb feature only allows important callers to
get through. An E-mail Notification feature can send a message after receiving a
call to any e-mail account including any alphanumeric pager or wireless phone
with e-mail capability. The message can include the caller's name, phone
number, and the time they called. Phone Plus has a clean interface that is easy
to use. It installs an icon on your taskbar so it is out of the way until you
need it. This icon flashes to notify you if calls were logged while you were
away, or Phone Plus can flash the Scroll Lock LED on your keyboard instead.
Missed calls can be easily returned right from the call log.
