Oh! One other feature my phone-of-the-future should have: If someone wanted an unpublished number, they could "cloak" it, that is, the number would be available for database lookup so the person's name would appear on my phone, but the place where the number usually appears would indicate "cloaked". Computers recieving calls from cloaked numbers could be instructed to hangup or compare the name field to an access list before generating the tone.
