20K records?   While I'm not sure exactly how many records AstDB could
handle it would seem to me that 20K would be a high number.   My
inclination would be to use a full database... perhaps you'd like to
store more about that callerID than just the caller's preferred
language.   Using a real DB would certainly make that easier.
