Just in time! I got a picture from a friend. (attached to this post).



Yes, I think it's a great deal for those who already use VRS frequently -- but what about those who don't use it as much, or want it just for deaf-to-deaf chat? Are they misled by the "free" part because they have to make VRS calls to get those 30 minutes?

Allright, I got my VP-100 updated today and you are right.. they blocked it. eh.. and further checking and found that SorensonVRS re-added Sunday hours because I did use CSD on Sunday when SorensonVRS were closed I think in order to keep customer using SornesonVRS, they may be forced to have service on sunday afterall. So that doesn't matter since can make vp call on sunday with sorensonvrs afterall so still not limited. but if a person get i2eye by d-link then can use any vrs because not tied to one vrs.

I don't think they are misled... there are several that tries to get vp-100 by applying and say "I use VRS frequently more 10 hours dialy" and get qualified easily. I have one friend telling me will use vp-100 only for point to point chat instead of use it for vrs all the time.

If one want greater flexibility then get D-Link's i2eye they have one in wireless mode.
