Elseed is a program that displays caller id information on the screen of a DirecTivo. With some complicated modifications, it will also work the the built-in modem on a Stand Alone Tivo. It will also work with with an external modem connected to the serial port of a Tivo. A recommended exteranl modem would be a US Robotics V.Everything modem. You can be them new or find one used on Ebay.
