[BC] Call screener software

Hi all,

We've written some software which, with the aid of a little external
interface, displays on your screen a phone caller's number, and links it to
a database into which you put the caller's name, address etc.

The first time someone calls you'd put in their location, name etc and you
can enter if they've won a contest, if they are a regular caller, if they
are a 'prize pig' and any special comment you wish.

Then next time they call, before you pick up, you have their record on the
screen. An assistant can enter the info, and the talent, looking at another
PC on the LAN can see what's going on. 

Ideal I think for talk shows or indeed any show that gets callers.

IS there anything like this already available commercially in the US, and do
you think any stations there would be interested in it?

Comments appreciated.

Rgds

Andy.
