	MicroPhone II does not have a 'host mode' perse, but we it does/will
come with a suite of scripts called 'miniBBS' which will do everything you 
probably want for unattended dialup access.  The big advantage of it being a 
script (ie it was written using our scripting language) is that you can modify
it to your hearts content to meet your personal requirements.
	With version 3.0 of MicroPhone II, the miniBBS becomes much more 
powerful as it can now do things such as display directory contents, auto-
create batches for batchfile xfers, and other nice BBS-like things.  you can
also extend it to take advantage of the MPII interface features like Icons and
dialogs to give your 'BBS' a Mac frontend.
