I see, What I am really trying to do is to have as close to an all in one convergence as possible. So take a small EEEPC like laptop, put the voice modem into it and there you have it ... phone, music player, video player, upgradeable memory, a mini computer with full QWERTY keys and so on ...
Is it perhaps simpler to connect an openmoko device to a mini laptop ?
