Hey, I can try.

But there are two things I'd like to understand, first:

a) how did Mer people solve this? Or did they just ship nokia
binaries?

b) do we really need those DSP algorithms? Can we just take data from
microphone and send it down the GSM line, and take data from GSM line
and put it to the speaker? If it will not work in the speakerphone
mode, I can live with that... It should somehow work in normal-phone
mode, and be definitely feasible with wired handsfree, no?

Thanks,
									Pavel
