I noticed at the last computer show in my local area that PCI modem are
becoming very numerous. They actually outnumbered the ISA modems at the
show. Is anybody working on writing a Linux driver for these modems? If
not I may want to give it a shot. Given PCI's solving of the IRQ limitation
(as well as probably the 4 COM port limit) on the PC I could definately put
these PCI modems to good use, besides I will need it if Intel is successful
in killing ISA (and the COM ports) this year. On another note somebody told
me that all PCI modems were WinModems. Does anybody know if this is true?
I doubt it, but the possibility is there.

PS
Anybody working on support for PCI parallel and serial ports? I may
want to look into these as well.
