>>chipset from Intel....capability to turn on the PC with a remote phone call<< Z, I was not aware of this new level of integration; however, I believe the function is fairly commonplace in current motherboards with telephony features. By tinkering with the hardware APM (Advanced Power Management), your computer can suspend or sleep until the phone rings, answer call, take instructions, and afterwards go back to sleep. You should confirm the specific features you expect with the vendor beforehand, but I would bet there is no need to wait.
