Having worked for GTE Business Communication Systems, Inc. for a short
while I found that it is extremely difficult to produce such a gadget
that would tell you the number of the person calling you while outside
of a PABX environment. Telephone numbers are often stored within TRUNK
databases, I think. It is entirely possible, though, to know who is
calling you before you answer if the call has been generated from within
a PABX. GTE has such a features.
