As I understand it, there is an enhanced AT command set known as AT+Voice.
This command set allows the modem to record/play compressed sound and
detect/generate DTMF tones.  As I see it, AT+Voice will lead to much more
than "sophisticated answering machines."  When combined with text-to-speech
(and someday voice-recognition) it will enable any (touch-tone) phone to
become your own Personal Digital Assistant. :-)

Grandiose claims aside, with these new modems, it will be a simple matter
of programming to build hardware-inexpensive order-entry and information
delivery systems.  Please contact me If you are interested in the future
of these modems, and the software that will drive them.  I would like to
see some simple public domain software that uses these new features.

One particular application of AT+Voice that interests me would be a
number you could dial to find out about government: who are my elected
representatives, who are their biggest campaign contibutors, what
legislation is being voted on this week, etc.
