By searching for a laptop with a real modem, before even taking Linux
into account, you have eliminated 100% of all available options:  It
doesn't exist.  Carry a real modem with you if you need a modem.  

Besides, do you really trust the phone company to provide proper voltage
and polarity?  Any idea what a line surge directly to your motherboard
does?  :o)
