Once again I own up to not being at all technical, but I do wonder just why so many areas are not being upgraded to enable Caller ID? You can get it all over the country if you have a BT phone, so why not with cable? There had to be a time when BT themselves upgraded all their exchanges to enable Caller ID, so why are cable companies loathe to spend money on something that people want? It's bad enough that we don't have a Call Waiting system that works very well. I had mine taken off as, unlike with BT, there is no way someone phoning you can tell if you are already on the phone as there is no automated voice system telling them you are on another call. If VM don't keep up with current technology surely people are going to start wondering why they bother staying with them
