When will Caller-ID be available on screen.  This is a feature available in DirecTV, Cablevision and ComCast...I keep being told it is coming - yet no dates are posted

is there also a "home voicemail message indicator" feature in the works too? i rarely ever use the phone, but it would be nice to have some kind of notification if i happen to get a voicemail. right now, i just have to remember to pick up the phone once a week and listen for the beeps.

Using the Verizon Call Assistant, you can have the system send you an email when a voicemail is left on your phone or even if a call is received.  Works virtually immediately after a VM or call is received.

We are to advise you that it will be available in this first quarter! Hopefully, that will give you a better idea of when it should be available.

I too would love to have the caller id flash on the tv. I just hope they remember that they should put in an option to shut it off also.

Hopefully it does not require the PC based Assiatnt software to set up or run.

I JUST got FIOS TV yesterday and was both SHOCKED and disappointed that on screen caller ID was missing, especially since now all my services are bundled through Verizon.  Used to be with Directv and LOVED that feature!  You'd think Verizon would have it before other companies since they are the phone service.......

I hope you're serious that it WILL be released this first quarter!  Directv has it right in the settings with the ability to turn it off and on - hope it's the same!

I would not mind if V incorporated caller ID for Fios TV into the IOBI software. It could have a lot more control through IOBI. Caller ID is a feature that I miss as well. IOBI is great but still limited.
