Dale,

Suppose you are building a sip adapter for black phones. (Well, black 
phones with a callerid display.)

What criteria should it use before displaying the callerid of the 
incoming call?

It is restricted by hardware and convention regarding what it displays - 
generally just digits for the number. The customer is going to be upset 
if he just replaced a pstn phone, and isn't getting callerid from the 
same callers he used to get it from. OTOH, the phone is likely to be 
worried about trusting From - its just too easy to forge.
