Jerry,
What CID are you expecting to show on the cell phone? Based on what  
information
you have provided, the original call is coming outside of your system,  
and you will not
be able to duplicate their CID when you pass the call to your users  
cell phone.
You can always screen the call though, allowing the recipient to know  
who is calling them.
