Does anybody out there have suggestions for a Caller ID display device (besides the Bell-supplied Maestro phone) for use in Canada? I'd prefer a printer, or something with an RS-232 output, but I'll gladly accept schematics, suggestions for kit suppliers, whatever. Reply via e-mail and I'll summarize. I've been told that the boxes sold for use in the USA do not work properly with the Caller ID info that Bell Canada provides. Can anybody authoritatively confirm or deny this? The Hello Direct operator told me that they did indeed have a display that would *work* in Canada, but they will not *ship* to a Canadian address ... Sigh.
