Walter,

You do in fact have to have caller I D to use the program but you do not
have to purchase, or otherwise rent, the display screen because the program,
along with its hardware, takes the place of the screen.  CAll blocker, the
feature which allows you to block a caller from ever calling your number
again, is $4 per month in Colorado right now.  I said in my earlier post
that I would be able to save that charge because the program will do that
for you but I believe I may have been incorrect about that.  You probably
have to have that feature turned on too, just like you do with Caller I D,
in order to invoke that command on the phone line.
Anyhow, I'll find out more in a day or two when it comes in the mail.  I
hope it works with speech as well as they claim.
