I haven't seen one.

Ah, well, that's an interesting point. I can't see much demand for 
anything but POS modems these days. People have asked me about doing 
V.150.1, and its always in relation to POS. Those modems are old, and 
there are no patent issues when them.

The information I saw doesn't say. If it has been done with Skype's 
blessing, you might expect that to be available now or soon.
