This is true, but you have missed something :-)

True is: currently there is no way to connect to i4b using a modem, 
i4b does not support a modem simulation or V.110 or V.120 (and 
probably will never).

But coming from an ISDN line using i.e. synchronous PPP and dialling
into an i4b machine set up to use sync PPP callin will get you -
proper setup done - will get you the good old ASCII shell and a login 
prompt.
