Abstract: An anti-telemarketing program uses the calling party identification of an incoming call to determine if the call is a telemarketing call by accessing a telemarketing database. The incoming call can be identified as a telemarketing call by direct correlation with a known telemarketing number or by indirect correlation by not being included within a list of known non-telemarketing numbers. If an incoming call is identified as a telemarketing call, and no override condition is set, the call will not be allowed to ring through to the desired phone line; instead, it will be terminated by a call progress tone or by a notification that the desired phone line does not accept calls from telemarketers. If an incoming call is not identified as a telemarketing call, it will be completed, and if it is from a telemarketer, the party receiving the call can designate the calling party identification from the call as belonging to a telemarketer.

Abstract: A device for use in a display system including an array of pixel cells formed on a substrate. Each pixel cell being coupled to at least one gate line of a plurality of gate lines formed on the substrate and at least one data line of a plurality of data lines being formed on the substrate. The device includes first and second transistors formed on the substrate. Each transistor has a gate electrode and first and second electrodes defining a serpentine channel region there between voltage applied to the gate electrode controls conductivity of the channel region. Preferably, a common electrode includes one of the first and second electrodes of the first transistor and one of the first and second electrodes of the second transistor.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for testing an array of pixel cells formed on a substrate is provided. Each pixel cell is coupled to at least one gate line of a plurality of gate lines formed on the substrate and at least one data line of a plurality of data lines formed on the substrate. The gate lines and/or data lines are partitioned into a plurality of groups. For each particular group, a first probe pad and select logic is formed on said substrate. The select logic, which is coupled between the first probe pad and the lines of the particular group, selectively couples the first probe pad to the lines of said particular group based upon first control signals supplied to the select logic during a test routine whereby charge is written to, stored, and read from the array of pixel cells. In addition, a second probe pad and hold logic for each particular group may be formed on the substrate.
