Well, if you're extremist about it, there is still the DSP.
Yes why I wanted to have a go at making modem. Unfortunately not top priority, so it's going real slow. (But tomorrow I'll make some RF tests with real simple trx and soft modems. Fun!)
Not much we can do about it without making our own ASIC tough :p
Getting a modem to work at all would be the first step anyway, then optimize for size and cost, ideally of course reusing cheap hardware already on the market.
