Chime!  I first picked up a Creative Modem Blaster 56k external modem at
Best Buy ($80), since it had a little sticker on the front that said it
something about 'derived from Rockwell', but it turned out that it did NOT
use the Rockwell command set, but something called ISO-101.   This might
have been ok, but I looked everywhere for documentation on ISO-101 and
couldn't find anything.

So I gave up and swapped that modem for a $80 Diamond SupraExpress 56k
internal modem (SUP2720).  Brian's code works great with this one, except
the voice files are at a different rate/compresion, so his recordings don't
play back well.   It plays back recordings it makes fine.

The DTFM (phone tone) stuff works great.  Should make for another good
command interface.  Also, I hope we can configure these voice modems so the
output goes into the mike/line in of the soundcard so we can use it for VR.
I'm not sure how to take the phone off hook, avoiding a dial tone or an off
hook message for a single line system.  On a PBX phone system, I think can
have the modem on an extention, always off hook.
