I've got my Powerbook 100 hooked up to my IIsi via an Imagewriter II
cable and it works pretty well.  Since I didn't buy the Powerbook
floppy the only way I can currently take stuff on or off the disk (not
including a modem) is via this cable.  One of these days I'll do it
via SCSI but for now my whole little desktop network consists of these
two machines.

My question is, is there some way for the Powerbook to access the
modem which is hooked up to the modem port of the IIsi over this
network?  Getting onto the hard disk seems easy enough with the built
in localtalk, but is localtalk capable of sustaining a networked modem
and if so, how?
