DESCRIPTION

Mac CallerID© is a shareware application that will display and store specific information provided by your local telephone company. You must subscribe to your local telephone company's caller information and identification service, commonly known as Caller ID. This application is similar to the Caller ID boxes available in many stores, but is available at a fraction of the cost. A lot of work went into the application, and hopefully you will agree that it is worth the nominal fee or more.
The caller's name, number, date and time can be displayed as a single call or in a list of all calls. A total of 9,999 records can be displayed and saved in the registered version. Mac CallerID© should work in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Sweden and Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Mac CallerID© REQUIRES:

THAT YOU ARE IN AN AREA WHERE CALLER ID IS AVAILABLE
YOU SUBSCRIBE TO YOUR LOCAL TELEPHONE COMPANY'S CALLER ID SERVICE
USE A MODEM THAT SUPPORTS CALLER ID

WHAT IS CALLER ID?

Caller ID is a way for you to determine who is calling before you answer the phone. Between the first and second rings, the phone company sends information about who is calling. Not all the information is always available, many times the call might have originated from an area that does not support Caller ID. At other times the call may be blocked by the calling party.
