First, you need to get the Caller ID or the Caller ID with Name service from
your phone company (it isn't available in all areas). Also, Caller ID may not
show up on all calls since it can either be blocked or isn't available.

With that said, these AT commands for the Supra 144LC,v.32bis, and the 288
(v.FC model) turn caller ID on/off

at#cid=0 --disables caller id
at#cid=1 --enables caller id in formatted format 

	as in
		RING    <---- first ring

		DATE=1102

		TIME=21:20

		NMBR=7085641446

		NAME=JOHN Q. PUBLIC

		RING   <---- second ring

at#cid=2 -gives caller id in hex dump (not what you want)

Finally, make sure that the baud rate is tuned down so that characters don't
go flying into the IIe at 115.2Kbps (!)
