this is NOT CNAM….

perhaps it can be called “the poor man’s CNAM”
or “ghetto CNAM” but this is just a reverse directory listing for published numbers, and not an actual CNAM look up…

thought i was going to learn something from this article….

Depends on the number. If there’s no listing known, they generally will return the city / state (like with most mobile phone numbers). But if there is a record, you’ll get it.

Hey… wouldn’t it have been a good idea to introduce Asterisk and other VoIP systems as well?
Um, yeah… we should have… looks like we’ll start working on some articles.
