When is there going to be more competition in the phone market so more comapnies offer line rental/caler ID etc? Will companies like the Carphone Warehouse be renting out phone lines?

Very soon as it happens. Carphone Warehouse's excellent phone company, TalkTalk, are involved in trials of the new process that will allow the reseller to own the WHOLE bill, including line rental and features. BT would then be responsible only for maintenance, rather like the situation with Gas where British Gas (Transco) only maintains the network. British Gas from a consumer point of view is now a different company (Centrica) using the British Gas brand, and this is the way BT will go in due course.
