SMS Server tools [1] works with existing GSM modems/phones, but the  
CDMA command set is different (No AT commands etc.) To make matters  
worse, it seems as if there is actually no standard at all, different  
manufacturers implement different command sets. There is document [2]  
that describes how the Nokia CDMA phones implement SMS functionality,  
it might be worthwhile to check if it works. I think you might use a  
program like minicom [3] to play around with the command set, as even  
the USB modems appear as serial devices thanks to the usb2serial  
kernel module.

As for voice, I expect that it would be a lot more complicated.
