Re: uk house phones, work in Oz?
Yes - I believe they do.
But you need to use a US to UK Adaptor with Capacitor. Got mine from Maplin - RJ11 socket adaptor (41521142).
Warnings:
1. Haven't tried it myself (move at the end of March).
2. Some people seemed to have got it to work, some haven't.
3. Some folk seem a bit concerned about Telstra charging lots of money if you subsequently have a problem with the line: http://britishexpats.com/forum/showt...ghlight=Maplin
