[Asterisk-Users] A winphone without the phone ??

[Brett Schwarz]

I am not totally sure I follow what you are saying or not. But anyways,
what I do at home is I have an AGI that gets called when a call comes
into my X100P card, and just sends the callerid to a GUI sitting on all
of my other machines at home. That way I can answer the phone if I know
the callerid. This was very easy to do, and I think it would be
relatively easy to extend this to what (I think) you are talking
about...or I could just be totally misunderstanding you...
