In article <4329@accuvax.nwu.edu> it is written:

>>There's no reason (none at all), why cellular phones shouldn't
>>generate Caller*ID (eg. the person being called FROM a cellular phone
>>would get correct Caller*ID displayed on his box), as the 'switch'
>>part of a cellular system is pretty much a standard model.

Upon checking here in the Miami, Florida area, where caller ID is
currently under consideration by the PSC, I am told there will be NO
caller ID available on calls made FROM cellular phones or Pay phones.
