I was thinking more of the data cable available that make the phone
look like a modem to the system. For a lot of Motorola phones, it is
a USB standard USB cable with a 5 pin mini-USB connector on the
phone end. You put the phone in the modem mode, and it responds to
AT commands. You may have to dial a number, or you may use one of
the extended AT commands. There are extended AT commands that will
also let you use it to send/receive SMS messages.

The thing is, when in the modem mode, the phone looks like a modem
USB or bluetooth modem to the system, depending on how you connect
to it. This may be what the OP is trying to do...
