RE: Asterisk - UK callerid

["Kevin Hawkins" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you saying that the same hardware (FX0 US version card) is used to get
the UK caller ID :-) - that would be great and has been my reluctance to
look at Asterisk to date.

Otherwises is the patch for the Meteor CID support available anywhere ??

Or Patrick does your xAP to Asterisk conduit pickup xAP CallerID packets
and
add them into the Asterisk system transparently ? - which would be neat !
