[asterisk-users] Determine if Call is from a cellular phone

[John Novack]

With LNP in the US, there really is no way to determine if the call 
originates from a landline, a VOIP line or a wireless line
Most numbers are portable and even the NPA doesn't tell much any more.
I have a wireless phone with a ( former ) landline number, and a VOIP 
line with a ( former ) wireless number.

I have to wonder why you care.
