`once set up, all of the telephone jacks in the home will work with Comcast Digital Voice – not just one
`phone next to the modem as with some voice over the Net providers.
`
`Comcast Digital Voice provides customers with the ability to listen to and manage their home voice mail
`messages from anywhere. All they need is access to a computer connected to the Internet. They will also
