retrieve unique id or phone number

[Purdy]

i've seen this question posted a few times, but they were all 2-3
years ago.

is this possible now with mobile asp.net v1 or v2?

if so, how ?
i need to be able to retrieve the unique id on the phone(sim card?) or
the phone # accessing my web page.

thx for any help.

Hi there,

It isn't possible to retrieve this information using ASP.NET to protect your
privacy. If a webpage could capture your phone number, spammers could
compile and bombard you with phone calls.

If you are targeting PocketPC Phone edition or Smartphones for people you
know
(in your company, for example), it is possible to change the Windows CE
registry
on the device to pass custom parameters in the headers which can be captured
on
an ASP.NET website. Each device would have to be manually configured to make
this work.

The SIM ID/Phone Number is only accessible to the Phone's OS.

I hope this information is useful.

Thanks,
