So much of what you're talking about in this thread goes way over my head, but the p for pause i understand! Thank you!!! After half an hour on the phone with verizon all they could tell me was that the comma won't work for pause with this phone and there is no plan to make it work. Knowing about the p has allowed me to program my calling card and international phone numbers back in so i can call my kids when i travel.

Thank you to all who contributed to this thread and this great resource.
