Northern Telecom makes a telephone that responds to the CIDCW signal.  
That's probably the one sold by Bell South.  It has ADSI protocol and can 
be used for home banking in Canada Trust territory, too.

Right next door to Atlanta, BEL-Tronics in Covington, GA sells a CF-130 
telephone that reponds to CIDCW.

I use that service, and it works great.  No more rushing off a call just
to find out it's a telemarketer.  I do have a BellSouth phone.

I think they have the monopoly on it. I've looked around and haven't
found anyone else that sells them. 2-Line models aren't available either.

I have the service on my phone lines and it is ok I was a little
dissapointed that the CW tone is generated still and will still kick
you offline. AT&T also has a model that you can use as well it is
available at the Phone Center Stores. Also Check Radio Shack I saw in
the Catalog a phone that supports Caller ID Deluxe

That's kind of a rediculous price.  It is a very simple device, and
does nothing but display who called, their phone number, and what time
they called, and remembers these dates and times.  I think the Bell
South one is $19.95.  It is Model # Cl-61, and is custom manufactured
for U.S. Electronics by Cybiotonics Limited, and is made in China.
For questions or warranty service call 1-800-338-1694.

The unit can probably be made for about $5.00 so $69.95 is utterly
rediculous. :-)

Sony also makes a 900mhz cordless with Caller ID deluxe in the
handset.

Mine also came with a deal from the local provider.  But had me call
the order-desk at the manufacturer to arrange shipping myself:

        Collonial Data Technology   800-622-5543
 
The model they sent me is the CDT2000.  Its black name/number unit
with 85 memory locations (or 93 depending upon which figure in the
literature you believe). It's a bit wide (about 8 inches), with the
usual review up/down, delete, contrast.  The call-wait ID seems to
work fine.  In fact, for some reason, cellular calls never issued
caller ID (and still don't), but now I get the ID info ONLY IF THE
CALL ARRIVES DURING CALL WAIT.  A quick DVM test during on-hook
proved that the info is only sent during call-wait rings (odd?!?)

Supposedly this unit sells for $80, but was reduced to $36 with the
NYNEX call feature packagae (which can be cancelled after one month).
There is probably some truth to that, because the same offer allows
you to choose a 128# memory NON-Call wait ID for free, istead of the
call-wait model. That NON-ID model is a top of the line $49 variety.

I'm planning a move from an apartment to a new house this month. It's
funny, but while I was talking to a Bellsouth rep about moving my
telephone service, she asked me if I wanted Caller ID (among other
services). When I replied "no thanks", she said "...even if we _give_
you the ID box?". 
Hahaha... sounds like they may be giving away the devices for a sign-up.

That is the way that I got mine.  They do that sometimes.

I've got to jump in and defend Marc Cohen.  It looks like a good price to 
me for a CIDCW box.  The BEL-Tronics unit is an integrated telephone with 
CIDCW and it costs $200.00.

Some people don't know the difference between CID and CIDCW. ;-)

Okay, I see, you get call waiting too for $69.95.  I don't like call
waiting.  I think it is kind of rude to put people on hold that you
are talking to in order to get another call.  I think it is better to
let my voice mail catch any calls that I get while on the phone. :-)
By the way, the $19.95 model will store many calls. :-)  I think at
least 10.
