I should have added one more requirement.  Internet authentication like
so many do.  Although all that I have worked with require the name to be
entered as text, something that isnt trivial to do (and asking people to
tap out their name via dtmf would be too bothersome).

I would like a merchant solution that would work 100% off someone
calling into the system and entering their data, authentication will
then occur via the internet.
