on screen caller id

You are correct, there are rare exceptions where the caller ID data can be retrieved from this type of bundled data stream. Since the phone service comes down the same pipe as the TV, they have specially designed their equipment (TV set top boxes, etc.) to pull this info out of the digital phone service data stream and display it on the TV.

I have this set up on my htpc. If you have an old school modem in your PC, simply plug it into your voipo adapter, then download Yac. Potato!
