A side question: what's preventing Asterisk from emulating MODEM?

>From what I see, an X100P card is but a DSPless MODEM, and Asterisk includes 
a DSP engine. (Effectively, a PRI interface can also be viewed as a DSPless 
MODEM pool.)  So theoretically, combining these two functions should give us 
MODEM capability, right?  Or maybe there is already such an application? (An 
Asterisk dialup BBS, for old time's sake...)  In fact, Motorola does provide 
a Linux driver for its SM56 soft MODEM's - well known X100P clones.  Can 
Asterisk make use of Motorola's driver?
