http://timewarnercable.com/centralny/products/digitalphones/callid.html This is a new service that is being offered in our area. When you receive a call while watching tv, the caller's name and number are flashed on the tv screen. Can you imagine someone sitting with their spouse or significant other watching tv, and the phone rings, and the name/number that show up on the screen is someone that this person doesn't want their mate to find out about? There'll definitely be some explaining to do!

Not a problem unless you're cheating.
