MACazine, May 88, page 39, Good Buys & Other Stuff column mentions this new
gadget:

		HyperDialer, $34.95,
		DataDesk International
		7651 Haskell Ave.
		Van Nuys, CA 91406,
		1-800-592-9602  or
		(818) 780-1673

and I quote:

	the box plugs into the handset jack on your phone and into the
	speaker port on your Macintosh.  Your telephone hadnset then plugs
	into the speaker port on your Macintosh.  Your telephone handset then
	plugs into a jack on the HyperDialer case.  There are no power
	connections.  To dial a number you simply lift the telephone handset,
	make sure you have a dialtone, then tell HyperCard or QuickDex to dial
	your number. (works only with touchtone phones).

quite honestly, before I'd spend $35 for this gadget, I'd by someone's
(no longer) used old 300baud AutoDialer modem (doesn't everyone have one
of those collecting dust?)  shouldn't cost anymore.
