It's actually the same as an old-style calculator display. 
something like:
 _
| |
 -
|_|

The phone *will* happily display any characters that it can with this
combination. (Meaning the firmware has provisions for alphanumeric)
e.g. "u" is fine:
|_|
and L
|
|_

etc..
but "D" is trouble for example.

So if you *really* wanted to, I guess, you could translate callernames
into a combination of displayable characters before passing it on.
Cool hack, but it's probably lots cheaper to buy gxp-2000s ;)
