- Apologies if everyone just saw this message, but after seeing it I

- Yes! Thank you for posting these commands. A transcript of my test
- session follows: (except I changed my friend's number to that of an
- annoying telemarketer in case any one out there has nothing better to
- do than try calling every number they see)
-
- OK
- AT#CID=1
- OK

- RING

- (I don't know what everything here means, but it's obviously a 1.200C ROM.)
-
- Have fun with this new functionality - BUT:
-
- Note that I subscribe to the CLID service - Southern Bell charges an
- extra $6 a month to send this information with each call and also
- charges a $12 start-up fee if you don't get the service at the same
- time you are ordering service to be connected. Without subscribing to
- this service, I would not be able to see this information because it
- would not be transmitted to me. Please don't send me mail complaining
- that it doesn't work for you.
- Note that this feature is not documented in any literature Supra
- has provided to me and may not be fully debugged yet, all I have
- noticed is that it worked twice with the same caller earlier this
- evening/morning. Hopefully this feature is more robust than dial tone
- and busy signal detection which don't always work for me, but also
- aren't really missed.
