Yep, I've got one of the digital answering machines. It is combined with my cordless phone. I hardly ever use my home phone, so we figured this one would be fine, instead of paying for the voicemail service. Bruce has the voicemail on his line, which is also the business line.
Also, I always think about if I need to get a hold of Bruce in the morning when he is still asleep and I am on my way to work. I would call my line and start yelling into the answering machine. LOL
