So I'm tired of being raped by AT&T on the land line, and am
looking at Ooma. But of course I want the Ooma Telo to transmit
standard Bell 202 CID packets on its output between the first and
second rings, just like Ma Bell does, so my CID announcer will
still work.

My first assumption would be that it does exactly that - otherwise
Caller ID would not work on any phone (including a cordless base
station) that's plugged into the Ooma. But I just want to be sure
before I shell out the bucks for the Ooma.

Can anyone here clarify this for me?

I have a Panasonic cordless base station plugged into an OOMA box and the
caller ID displays correctly.
