No editorializing! From this weeks Communicaions Week: Bell Atlantic has filed for Caller ID in Maryland. It along with all the other CLASS services will be available around Baltimore next month. Washington suburbs get it in November with the rest of the state to follow as SS7 is implemented.

If not, is there a way to speed that up, like writing to someone to indicate interest? Also, from a technical standpoint, what is involved in providing the service? Are any updates required to the CO equipment?

Regarding the question about what is required at the CO for CLASS services, I asked a rep at US West in Seattle recently about this. They said that the 5ESS is already equipped for it, but that they will be buying new software from AT&T. Some of the other offices will probably require retrofit to make them compatible. One problem in this area is making sure that the US West and GTE offices in the area all talk to each other and send ANI. Tad Cook tad@ssc.UUCP MCI Mail: 3288544
