Caller ID announce

The caller ID announce feature lets you know who's calling
without having to look at the display. When you have an
incoming call, the handset speaks "Call from..." and the name
of the caller based on the phonebook or caller ID information.
If the caller's name is private or unknown, the phone number
up to the last 11 digits will be announced. If the caller's phone
number is also private or unknown, no information will be
