I think so, although it could probably phrase that as

         def __unicode__(self, *args):
                 try:
                         return unicode(self.__call__(*args))
                 except pythoncom.com_error:
                         return repr(self)

        def __str__(self, *args):
                 return str(unicode(self, *args))

What is the set of types that __call__ can return?
