Anything is possible. But I haven't seen one off-the-shelf. It really won't
be a big deal to write, though. We created a timeclock application and toyed
with allowing people to clock in via phone, and I even wrote the extension
logic, but we opted to not enable it because we don't trust our employees
that much.

This was years ago, when we were running pre-1.0 code. We've switched
servers a few times, so the logic is long gone, but it only took an
afternoon to write and debug.
