I hope whatever next open phone comes around it's totally digital. Audio lines maybe were a good idea for phones with few cpu power available, but now it's only a waste of PCB space I think. The hardware becomes more flexible and maybe you can do some DSP to enhance the voice. Or implement an answering machine inside the phone. Do anyone know about recent GSM chips? I'm still dreaming a up-to-date open phone :) Is there a standard to do voice-audio-codec over multiplexed AT channel? -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
