Abaton will be releasing their InterFax 24/96 within a few weeks. It
has a 2400 MNP 5 data modem and 9600 fax (send and receive). The
software is exceptionally good. Together with ATM, I get superlative
output.

This is *not* an official endorsement, but I was one of the people
responsible for our August fax modem Lab Report. Abaton's then-current
product, the 12/48, was downrated only because of slow hardware. The
24/96 fixes this problem.

I have been using the 24/96 in its various beta incarnations for
several months now and am more than happy.
