You need to know what actually gets sent by the technology itself, however
it's often nothing at all, so if incoming calls end up in the 's'
extension, then:
exten => s,n,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(num)}" != ""]?gotNumber)
exten => s,n,Noop(Withheld number call, drop it)
exten => s,n,Hangup()
exten => s,n(gotNumber),Noop(We have a call from ${CALLERID(num)})
and so on.

You need to get the books and start reading up on dialplan logic.
Essentailly, you need to Answer() the call, then Playback() a message,
then it gets intersting when you need to dial another extension with the
caller holding, accept inout from the extension, then bridge (or not) then
call, or dump the caller into a mailbox. Left an an excercise to the user
:)

Setup an extension to record a message then dial it, then you can move the
file, etc.
exten => *90,1,Answer()
exten => *90,n,Playback(beep)
exten => *90,n,Record(/data/tmp/greeting:alaw,,60)
exten => *90,n,Wait(0.5)
exten => *90,n,Playback(/data/tmp/greeting)
exten => *90,n,Hangup()
This is pretty straightforward - it's in the book: Asterisk, the future of
telephony. Google it and get the PDF, or buy the dead tree version.

It was rs232, not USB, although I guess a usb serial adapter might work:
