> Could you achieve a more high throughput version over voice?
The issue is that it quickly ends up costing about the same amount as a data connection would in the first place.

Unfortunately, voice calling uses lossy compression, so your data rate would be somewhat limited as you struggle to be 'heard' over that.
That by itself could get you up to about 0.5kbps for text with decent compression, with no other effort.
I think we lost that feature in the transition to 3G.
