Description
This experimental device appears like a weird combination of a helmet and an acoustic coupler. It allows the user to travel through the telephone lines, arriving anywhere that there is a telephone to arrive at. Only one is needed as it travels with its user. Being experimental, however, it is not safe for transporting more than one user at a time.
Episodes
Seen in A Fly in the Ointment.

Some fan fiction authors who are pro Chip+Gadget (or simply Gadget+any chipmunk) believe that the Modemizer incident made Gadget genetically compatible with the chipmunks and rendered a possible relationship of hers with Chip sensible (with Chris Fischer being the first to actually use this idea [could someone confirm this?]). Nevertheless, the whole issue of interspecies relationships has been discussed numerous times as there are several solutions.
