Hi!

If you need a tamagochi to take care of  - write your own driver. To
do some work, I'd rather purchase a normal HW modem. I doubt you will
be able to use it under FreeBSD and, probably, Linux. Even under
Windows it runs unreliably.
Soft modems are usually windows-only devices with most of their
functionality running as a proprietary driver, so you are calling for
troubles from my point of view.
