Don't know about Gmail Tap, but I have a Morse Code Keyboard and a Code
reader on my Sprint Android, as well as a PSK transceiver.  And when
someone calls me it sends either their name [if they're in my phonebook]
or the number at 25 WPM.  Interesting to be in line somewhere when that
happens.

IIRC, that was an April Fool's joke from Google.

However, I have a bunch of ringtones saved with the caller's name at 60 WPM in my dumbphone.
