RE: OT: DECT phones - advice

["Broadfoot, Kieran J" <Kieran.Broadfoot@xxxxxxx>]

vgetty with a usr sportster 56k.  Unfortunately it does not handle caller
ID
but I guess you might be able to add this info into the equation with one
of
the boxes mentioned on this mailing list a while back.

Guys: I sort of missed the whole caller ID -> PC thread.  Do you think
its
possible to use one of these devices with linux to log calls?

Thanks
Kieran

Just out of interest,

1) what software do you run on linux for the answerphone
2) what modem do you use
3) does it record Caller ID?

TIA

Jason
