What people do not seem to realize is that it may be quite a good while
before this device works.  The problem is that it speaks a telephony codec
that there exists no free implementation.  The G.723.1 codec is an
industry codec whereas to get a source code copy one has to pay a goodly
amount of money; even then, I imagine one could not "open source" his/her
implementation.  This has been an issue for a long time...  If you can
find an open G.723.1 implementation, let us know, then we can do something
about it...

Shoot, I'd be glad to write a driver for it, just becuase of the sheer
convenience this thing could be. The simple part would be the driver.  The
hard part would be talking to the device in a language it understands
(G.723.1)
