How about a usb, (dongle, connector), that has a telephone hardware jack on the opposite end (rs 22 ? ). This would allow a PC (Eee PC) with telephone software to answere calls as a telephone, allowing the PC to be used as a note pad to keep notes about the conversation (report) and e-mail, or fax them if neccessary over the internet. By providing duo I/O the PC could make phone calls or send email as a security gateway (using the alternate I/O channel to flag or send or recieve accept or reply athority). Programs that allow key board or phone pad text input could be searched for key words to forward important mesages. The usb connection and internet connectability could interface with CB, walky-talky, blue tooth technowledgy for local reporting, or ham radio for non-commercial communication. (call home on your radio and send a text or voice mesage)
