Re: Automating telephones

Hi,

>> Caller ID modems
> Not in the UK....

I have a Pace Solo external modem and I'm pretty sure it supports caller ID
- it anounces the number that's calling and, as far as I know, is supposed
to use the caller ID data to set the time on the modem.
As I have an NTL line I have never been able to test this though...!?!

There is a dedicated group on yahoo for the Pace Solo - might be worth
asking on there whether anyone has one that they're prepared to part with.

Andy.

BT offer this service, very good

Again BT offer this

Meteor, it is not a bad piece of kit for the price - will auto record.
Also you do not need to tell the caller they are being recorded - it is
legal as long as one party knows they are being recorded.

> Caller ID modems
Not in the UK....
