ALL the external modems use a 'hayes compatible' command set, and it is a
VERY modal command set that is designed to be used with terminal programs and
macros and such.

Only an internal card based modem is going to do what you want.

Your best bet, really, is to find a modem chip set and build your own modem
around it. While you're at it, make it a 6502 coprocessed card for the Apple --
write GS/OS drivers for the thing and sell it cheap and get rich.
