A company by the name of Data Desk of Seatle sells a device called the "Hyper
Dialer" for somewhere around $30.  This is the same little interface box that
bordland sells with their Sidekick DA - MacDialer.  It hooks up to your phone.

Data Desk - 818 780-1673 (Robert Solomon)

As a side note, one of the reasons the release version of Hypercard is 1.01 is
because there were some technical problems with the way they were doing dailing
that would not work properly with certain phone switching systems. Mr. Solomon
I believe is the one who discovered this problem with Hypercard.
