Maybe, with appropriate software. The "internet phone" packages I've
looked at required both a network connection (could be a modem) and a
sound card.
I did see, a couple of months back, a combined WinModem and sound
card combined on one card.
I think you missed the point on this one, David. A voice modem is
designed to work as a hands-free speaker phone and it comes with the
software to perform this function.
An internet phone is a whole different animal and (as you pointed out)
requires serveral other components not normally packaged with the modem.
