I just found out that I can get Caller-ID so I thought I'd rush right out (call) and get one of the kits that I see so often in Electronic Shopper. They're all gone! (or at least I didn't see them) If you know of a good kit, please give me the details. Also, Home Automation Labs sells some pricey units that suppport the name field. Do most units do this. The HAL description lead me to think that this was special. Oh, yes, how hard do you think it would be to use one Caller-ID unit for two phones? I shouldn't have a hard time switching it to the ringing line for a few seconds. I'm not worried about simultaneous calls. Thanks! --kyler
