I would like to know what it takes to make a device to connect to a linux computer that using my netcom legal regular sim card out of my mobile can allow me to use the headphones and microphone of the pc to make normal mobile phonecalls to my wife/friends (no voip). I would like to use my duemilanove… can it be a shield ?
what is necessary to do software side on the pc ?
not to be a party pooper, but it seems to me that it would be much easier to just have the headphones/mic plug into your cellphone? if that is overall intent?
it is part of a bigger picture,
is it possible to do it ? how ?
To be practical you will need to find a GSM module that has a voice interface and work from there, e.g this module http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/produc … cts_id=757 has a digital voice interface. I haven’t looked closely at the interface but it might be doable with an Arduino, I suspect it will require a more advanced MCU or some specialized logic to handle the audio streams.
The rest is a matter of interfacing to the PC, a USB virtual serial connection would probably do it, and a custom app on the PC to access audio devices. I haven’t done any real app programming on Linux so can’t comment much on that.
using processing (http://processing.org/ http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/PhysicalPixel) i have heard you can send values to arduino program variables.
modules like this :

has at voice commands …
am I on a wrong path ?
