I wonder if the carriers have anything to do with the feature? I have Verizon, and I don't have it yet.

I'm on Verizon, and the Call Screening feature appeared on my P2XL (via server-side installation rather than app update) earlier this week.

Lucky you!!!
I'm on Verizon and haven't gotten Call Screening yet. Maybe it's based on where you live, rather than carrier??

Still don't have the update, but saw this Lifehacker article which suggests signing up for beta testing at the link below.

I don't know that signing up for beta will matter. I'm not in the beta track, I got the feature overnight without an app update. I believe it's a server side switch that flips once you have the correct version of the phone app. I have to believe that version has been made available to all by now, it's been several weeks.
