What I wanted to do was integrate it into login to check the incomming number before answering the phone. I was using a Practical Peripherals 14400FXMT modem that claimed to have the service (could return the number as a string) builtin. I bought an ID box just so that I could verify my results. It never did work. The results of my talks with PP tech support were these: 1) there is no standard for caller ID. Different companies may do it differently. 2) PP is in CA, and as a result they never could test there; but rather had to go out of state. 3) Different "CP"s will have different signal levels. What you may be able to pick up at one phone you can't 2 blocks away. In my case, I have two phone lines in the same exchange, but they do enter the house on two different trunk lines. The CallerID box does show numbers for one line but not the other (always out of area). After these initial failures I dropped the idea.

So lets pick that one up after monday when Sony announces their product and please don't forget that they have their PlayStation division to tap from for technology. So lets deal with BeBox, whats so great about it in terms of multimedia? Also if you already own a PC , I don't see any reason why you can outfit your PC with the appropiate gear. S3 Virge (3d engine) , GUS PnP, matrox meteor or suitable vga plus video capture board-- I think Matrox has a decent combo vga + video capture. Tapi devices are starting to rolling so if you shop around you can probably find a decent Tapi board. My point is that you can get a fairly decent multimedia PC. JKH just posted that Intel is selling P200 with their Aurora motherboard for about $1300 .

Hi May I ask what you used to interrogate the CallerID string out of the modem? There is only one teleco in the UK (well, losely speaking) which provides the actual copper which goes into your house, so it should (in theory) be possible for me to do the same with my USR? Or does USR not work with the CallerID stuff? Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.

Or > does USR not work with the CallerID stuff? It depends on the modem. The CallerID signal is a pulse train impressed on the line between rings. Your modem needs to have the hardware hooks to see this (many modems are isolated from the line with a mechanical relay until they go off hook and the only thing that's always on line is the ring detector). --don From owner-freebsd-multimedia Sat Jun 15 19:25:22 1996 Return-Path: owner-multimedia Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id TAA01830 for multimedia-outgoing; Sat, 15 Jun 1996 19:25:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ki.net (root@ki.net [205.150.102.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id TAA01825; Sat, 15 Jun 1996 19:25:18 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (scrappy@localhost) by ki.net (8.7.5/8.7.5) with SMTP id WAA03849; Sat, 15 Jun 1996 22:25:20 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sat, 15 Jun 1996 22:25:19 -0400 (EDT) From: "Marc G.
