At the risk of being flamed....

Has anyone had any success get the 'El cheapo' Wildcard W100P clone's
(£20 flavour) to work with UK Caller ID?

I'm not sure what the status of Asterisk 1.6 is with respect to UK
caller ID, being that we have an odd method of sending the FSK ahead of
the ring, but I'm guessing I can't be the first to ask this?

Keeping in mind that cost is the most important factor, my searches I've
found a couple of suggestions - the most promising of which was reading
the CID from a serial modem. However, I've tried a couple - on of which
is a BT Enabler that no amount of AT commands can get to give up the CID
- and concluded that the chances of finding a compatible modem are
probably slimer than getting the clone to work.

Has anyone been able to get the cheap clone cards to offer CID in the
UK?
