This looks like LCDproc or something with a custom client running on an 
HD4480...

The HD4480 based LCDs are _really_ cheap and you will probably be able 
to find them for $3-$5.  If you don't want to build the enclosure 
yourself, you could get a pre-made one from Matrix Orbital or Crystal Fontz.

You would of course have to send the information to the LCDproc client 
(I guess you could use the System command in Asterisk coupled with the 
command-line LCDproc client).

Oh, and BTW the site for LCDproc is www.lcdproc.org

Drop us a line if you need help with this process.
