As far as I know genokii can not display CID. It required Genome libs.(Heavy)
Linux carputers should have one distinct advantage that is the boot time over M$ Window$. If you put KDE, Genome it'll be similar to booting Win$p.

So please continue with your work it'll be quite usefull.

Please make it work on GSM as well. There are more GSM users than CDMA.

I have just moved from Windoze XP to Fedora Core 4 on my carputer, and very reluctantly, as PhoneControl.NET is easily the best phone control software I have seen. Such a shame there's no Linux support.

Given that, something like this is exactly what I want and need. Otherwise I will be forced to go back to Windoze. And as all Linux users know, it's like wrapping a piece of 2x4 around your head.

So go for it! I'd love to help in any way I can, although I have very limited skills in VB. If the need for a website becomes apparent however.. =P
