What you need for that is a version that uses a PIC32MX7xx (easy port if there was source available and no NDA) that has a built in Ethernet controller (needs external PHY but that's not a big deal). Then the PIC32 could either decode narrowband and send audio back, or more likely I/Q over UDP.
Really, I'm not too negative about the NDA thing.. except it keeps others from evolving the idea in ways like above.
I'm playing around now with the SDR-Cube and that could have probably been adapted to work with the Funcube Dongle as well if there was access to the firmware.
But, it's still a good toy the way it is and I don't blame Howard and crew for doing it that way since it probably wouldn't have been done at all as a small stick like it is.

What we need is an Ethernet interface to USB that uses POE. This has got to be out there already.
I would put quite a few of these in remote locations for monitoring a whole lot of things.
