Convert REX to GSM smartphone/Tablet

Hi,

It looks we can turn Rex to GSM smartphone/Tablet, it probably need to sort of efforts, 1) adding a GSM modem, 2) Software.
While first step looks to be straight forward, but I have no clear idea about software. Can I expect standard Android to handle all the task to communicate with the modem? or, no, I have to develop apps or driver for this reason?

For internet, you need drivers for the modem - correct drivers and standard software will connect you to the internet. For Audio, you may need a simple application sending I2C and AT commands to control the modem.
