Question, does anyone know if I can install a cordless phone on my iDCS 500 system?

Sure you can.You need an analog port either from an analog station card or a sli daughterboard card.

If your analog phone has a caller ID display. It won't work because for some strange reason, Samsung has neglected to transfer the caller ID information to the analog phones(only digital)

I am not sure why they do this because even Nitsuko phones that are over 10 year old can have caller ID on its analog stations however Samsung phones refuse to program this simple feature.

This is really bad if your trying to make a fax server on the analog lines but can't see who is sending the fax.

Jonnydanger,
If this is a huge issue for you then take the fAx off the system and put it directly on an outside line and the problem goes away.
