Some obvious applications come to mind if it does. I don't know how well the speech recognition system performs over the lower bandwidth of telephone lines, but some interesting stuff could possibly be done with this. In fact vocal encryption/decryption could be done it seems. (Always thinking of the practical...) Some really unique multi-player games are possible with this machine (either via phone or ethernet).
