FWIW (most likely for any brits reading, as modems that understand BT
caller ID are somewhat rare), I'm doing caller ID using a hacked BT CD50
box that I got for a fiver on ebay... see:

I had to write my own code[1] to decode the CID data and do lookups
against a list of known numbers, but the relevant specs are downloadable
from BT, and shouldn't pose too much of a challenge to a competent
programmer.

[1] Sadly my CID code is part of a much larger piece of home automation
software, to which I've hacked on a call to mythtvosd, so isn't a
stand-alone app.
