Comcast Enhances Triple Play With Launch of Universal Caller ID(TM) Service

Three-Product Digital Customers in Michigan Can Now See Who's Calling on the TV and PC

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Comcast, the nation's leading provider of entertainment, information and communications, today announced that customers who subscribe to its Triple Play of digital cable, high-speed Internet and digital voice services in Michigan can now view incoming caller information on their TV and computer screens with the launch of the Universal Caller ID(TM) service.

Now available at no additional cost, the new Universal Caller ID feature provides three-product customers more control and convenience than ever before. Whether they're in the middle of watching a movie or surfing the Internet, these customers can now see who is calling and decide to answer the phone or ignore the call without having to rush to the handset.

"The Universal Caller ID service is exciting because it's one of the first cross-platform products that integrates phone, TV and the PC, and it provides customers with more choice in their entertainment experience," said Tom Coughlin, Senior Vice President of Comcast's Michigan Region. "This innovative new feature is just one more way we're providing even more value to our customers at no extra cost."

When a call comes in, the Universal Caller ID feature displays the caller's name and phone number on a pop-up banner on the TV or computer screen, and the customer can answer the phone or select "exit" and go back to their favorite TV show or online activity.

The Universal Caller ID to the TV feature will activate automatically, so incoming caller information will appear on customers' televisions as the service becomes available to their home. If they choose, customers can turn the feature off or set it to snooze while watching their favorite show or movie. The Caller ID to the PC feature can be easily downloaded and installed at www.comcast.net/callerid.

Note: To receive the Universal Caller ID feature, customers must have the digital Triple Play and a digital set-top box that supports the feature. Customers may call 1-888-COMCAST or visit their local Comcast payment center (list follows) to ensure they have the appropriate digital service and equipment.
