Caller ID over PC
Just curious, is it possible to get caller ID over my PC without a modem present in my PC? If so, what software can I use to do this?
thx

I have been using a MagicJack for long distance calls, & it has caller ID in the software that shows up on the screen :)
Just curious, how does magicjack work? How much is it a month and year? Can I keep my current phone number?
BTW, shows up on my PC screen or phone?
thx
I was thinking of getting one there Doc...would you recommend it?

I got it for my business here in a rural area. I do a lot of long distance faxes & long distane phone calls. It has cut my LD bill by 85% per month since May. & it evns works with a cordless phone base unit plugged in to it.
Become a salesman Doc...you just sold me on another product

Doc, does caller ID pop up on my PC when I get a call? If so and I have a browser open, does a pop up msg pop up on top of all active windows and not hide behind them when I receive a call?
Aslo, can I keep my current phone number and area code?
Doc - I am thrilled that you have found a viable solution for your telecommunications needs.
This career telcom professional advises:
Be careful.
MagicJack has limited applicability and will not function correctly on all systems. The companies marketing and distributing the product have a reputation worthy of scrutiny before you provide them access to your bank account.
