I'd like to see the ability to sort the call history by actual date rather than an ascii sort of the date:
entries like:
1/1/2009
1/16/2009
1/2/2009
should be sorted as
Top of my head the only thing I can think of is to be able to turn off that popup notifciation with an extender otherwise I love the product.
It would be great to have the software run as a service so that a user does not have to be logged into the computer all of the time.
It would be very nice with Bluetooth support (i.e. so I see who is calling on my Bluetooth connected mobile).

I love the product. One feature that would be very beneficial for me would be to to have an "answer call" button on the dialog box. Many of us have quality mics and to be able to answer a call without having to look for a handset would be very convienient.
That is a great idea I could use my external headset and answer or perhaps even dial out my contacts?
A couple of suggestions:
1. Export call log to txt file or csv (for import into spreadsheet etc.)
2. Ability to add name to unlisted or unknown number and have program remember that name and apply it to the caller log.
3. I am using RocketDock and minimizing to the toolbar hide the application. Either work as a service and have log accessible or have the app minimize to the Dock somehow.
I am useing vista caller id w/ ms outlook syschonization this program works fine at my house which uses a cable modem, but when i use it at my my work which is a vonage modem it dos not work.. to make it sort. when a person calls athome the id: 212-555-5555 atwork the id: 1-212-555-5555 which the outlook dos not work but when i change one of the contack w/ 1-212-555-4534 it dispaly as before.. so my ? is there a easy way to do this in stead of doing a contact one by one even if i put 1- on all my contacks it masses up my hole invontrey.. hope someone can help me

Thank you everyone- some really good feedback here and I must say that all of these suggestions and request seem reasonable and some quite exciting =)Looking forward it is important to have the fundamentals right, hence we spend a lot of time going back to basics, telephony device and service provider programming & voice support - (perhaps such things as answer button/voicemail etc) and 64-bit support. There is no doubt! anyone looking at new PC's at retailers these days will concur that say ~90% are running Vista 64bit. Unfortunately the current Vista Caller-ID code-base(originally from 2006)made moving to 64-bit very difficult and cumbersome, coupled with our plans to move into a service framework to make network centric support and Windows Home Server support a reality; a complete Vista Caller-ID telephony engine overhaul is underway.However, given that the last Vista Caller-ID release was in April of 2008 and that some of these request can be catered relatively quickly we opted to be releasing Vista Caller-ID 1.0.8 this weekend. This will be the last version using the current generation telephony code-base before moving to a service provider model.Our current plans and goals for 1.0.8 are:
If you feel that there is room for any last minute additions, suggestions or something you really really need in 1.0.8 please let us know ASAP.
Erik,Sounds like a quick fix - we could try and get this implemented in Vista Caller-ID 1.0.8 this weekend. Please let me have more information, you are using Vonage with Vista Caller-ID 1.07 and you need the outlook sync to drop the 1 prefix???
Hi, new on this site.
I'm looking for a caller-id application that I can use with my SIP account. Your application looks really cool and seem to work on WHS and Vista Media Center. Just what I'm looking for but no support for SIP if I understand it correctly.
Any chance that you will add SIP support in the near future?
Welcome :)
There are some Snom VoIP reported as working; personally have not yet been able to dig further into it but I know that Snom does support the open SIP protocol and they have an TAPI Service Provider (TSP) for SIP.
After 1.0.8 we would like to embrace these areas more -please share mot info. provider? -some of these are proprietary.

I would like the ability to scale (enlarge) the pop-up notification so it could be seen from across the room.
With Vista Caller-ID nearing completion I created a quick sneak peak thread to showcase some of the new features and fixes.
I would like to see it be able to broadcast to other pc's that cant get the phone cable, like YAC. This way, I can connect to my desktop, and view the calls from my laptop.
