Hey Lee,

I was thinking about this a little bit and it's probably easier than it
sounds.

I thought that Alsa already supported MC97 based AMR modems? It looks
like it does with the SND_INTEL8X0M module ..

Also, you wouldn't have to worry about injecting stuff into the
networking layer since modems are just character devices in linux.

The only real part would be the DSP stuff. Their might be some other
projects to do this kind of stuff already ..

later,
Steve
