I would assume this would only cause problems if two calls come in at
the same time or the second comes in before ECS is done with any events
using the info before it is cleared, yes?  Or could the caller-id, name,
& number item types be modified with an entry as to which caller-id-ifc
item they are to reference?  This way we could have many caller-id
interfaces and treat each phone line info completely differently in its
event programing.

Much Thanks
Dan
