[comp.sys.next] RJ11-isms

Is it correct to assume that the RJ11 appendage that was discussed
would allow the computer to control the on/off hook functions?
Some obvious applications come to mind if it does.  I don't know how well
the speech recognition system performs over the lower bandwidth of
telephone lines, but some interesting stuff could possibly be done with this.

In fact vocal encryption/decryption could be done it seems.

(Always thinking of the practical...) Some really unique multi-player games
are possible with this machine (either via phone or ethernet).
