Also known as DID service or called number information at various times. You can have analog copper pots lines configured to send that information. I don't know if Asterisk supports it. Anyone? Going to isdn gives you a cleaner and more feature rich signalling. I guess whether it is a viable option depends on the price your local carrier chages.
