Actually, the short answer any more is yes, you can use a modem.
Cool! that could make my life easier when setting up a demo system to "sell" Asterisk to my bosses... :-)
I know it is better for several reasons to use an actual Digium X100P.
The main reason being that supporting them is a very good thing. They
are the reason Asterisk exists. However, I see lots of messages in
various forums wanting something cheap to start out with, and for many
of us, $100 for a card, or $180 for a dev kit just doesn't fit the
budget for a test or hobby system. Personally I would like to see them
sell a cheaper version, without the support option. If they sold one
per customer for $50 without the hour of support, I think people would
be more likely to buy one. I would have, that is for sure.
By now I only need a working VoIP<->PSTN demo on Asterisk. Buying such dedicated telephony cards is the next step.
That being said, you need a specific firmware on the modem, Intel 537 or
MD3200.
How to find out? For both the built-in modem in my laptop and for the external US-Robotics I can't find it on the provided docs...

Please note that I do not sell any of these cards on eBay, and am not
trying to support any specific seller. I simply found one the works,
and wanted to help others in low-budget situations out. I will be happy
to help anyone out that needs it with these cards, but keep in mind that
mine installed with no issues at all, so I don't have any
troubleshooting experience with this card.
Could you please provide some help on how to configure Asterisk to use a modem for outgoing calls? For outgoing SIP-calls it works fine...
