A system and phone for providing called party awareness information to a calling party. As disclosed, a communication service provider can receive identification information associated with a called device from the keypad of the phone. The communication service provider can determine whether the called device is associated with the communication service provider or not. The communication service provider can use the identification information to determine the local time when the called device is not associated with the phone system. Alternatively, the communication service provider can use offsets to determine the local time generated by the called device when the called device is associated with the communication service provider. The offsets can be provided by fixed phone locations or non-fixed phone locations. Thereafter, the communication service provider can return the local time to the phone where it can be displayed. |
