There's only 1 reason why I don't do the "mobile off at home" - and that is because most people call me at night, when everyone else in the house is asleep. As for leaving a phone on silent, sometimes I just plain forget (eg. after a church service I would leave the phone on silent until I next get my phone out etc). Voicemail is expensive++. I'm passionately against using voicemail unless all my friends pay me $2 a month to activate it (I don't have many friends...)

The thing is that it's restricted to only immediate family members otherwise I'd violate the code of conduct... The staff price is about the same as what you'd get in HK, so if you know anybody heading over there soon, ask them to get one for you :) Oh, and the 350D has been replaced by the 400D.
