[Asterisk-Users] (possibly) new use for asterisk

Has anyone ever thought configuring asterisk on a pair of pc's to act as 
remote broadcast terminals for the broadcast radio industry? Seems like 
a stripped down asterisk on a laptop with a PCMCIA ISDN modem connecting 
  to another asterisk instance on a PC at a radio station would work 
nicely.  Use one of the higher quality codecs, interface the remote 
mixer to the sound card on the laptop, and the studio pc would hook to 
an unused input on the studio's mixer console (after going through the 
delay of course!).  Write a small TCL app to sit on the laptop and 
interface to manager, and you'd be all set.

Is this overkill for asterisk, is there something better to do this task?
