ah-ha,
thank you very much, that's what I found when googling, I'll ask my user 
and see if Asterisk announcing the call is acceptable to him, if I can't 
spoof the callerID.

Followme would alternatively work pretty well, press 1 to accept the 
call etc. is a pretty nice feature, I'll see if that works for him.

Thanks!

FWIW, there are also "professional spoofing services" but they cost
$0.02-$0.05/minute.
