 I added Caller-id support and it is now part of Mythtv 0.13 release.
See the mythtv-0.13/contrib/mythnotify README files.

Also, I posted the other day a link to a 'java client' that can be used on
Windows/Linux boxes so in addition to Caller ID info on your OSD, you can 
get a notificaton on all the other machines in your house. If someone 
could test it on the Mac, that would be cool.
