i found your instructions a bit confusing... should i add an @ after the number as in:

5551234@

then hit OK?

please elaborate.... thanks

1. Punch in the numner you want to call.
2. Press the button in the upper right corner on the keypad (the one which looks like a small box with something written in it).
3. Select "hide my number" in the menu which pop ups.
4. You call is now made.

I think this feature is network dependent. You might want to ask your telecom provider if they have this kind of service available, other wise even if you try to hide it, it will still show up

OK. i just tried that & it doesn't work here in Kuwait...

then it depends on if the service provider would allow it...

oh well
