If Caller ID isn't available in your area then it looks like that will remain to be the case. Look at the small print at the bottom of page 21, it states:

*Please note Call Display is not available in some parts of the network.

Even if you buy a Caller ID phone it will not display incoming numbers unless the exchange can provide the service. Without Caller ID service you won't get text message to display on the handset, they will be received as a spoken message.
