The reason why Class 2 or 2.0 is required is that for time-shared
systems, critical timing issues using Class 1 cannot be guaranteed by
the host. Under Class 2/2.0, this is handled by the modem. If you've
got a very light system, you can probably get away by using Class 1,
(if the software supports it) but Class 2/2.0 is the preferred option.

Dunno about voice, but for fax systems, you can try HylaFAX.
