[This is from the Silent Talk Conference]

Hi, Jesse.  Your SilentTalk posts datestamped January 5 are here in
western PA on January 11.  I've been wondering about SilentTalk
myself, ever since it got on the backbone.  Has it slipped a disc?
Maybe we should take it to a Chiropractor or something :-)

I share your cautions about the IMS 2445 modem.  It MAY be a fine
product - the specs are nice.  But I was unable to find a listing
for IMS in any of several industry directories I consulted.  And
I think we just have to condition ourselves for "Sticker Shock".
After all, aren't we the folks who shell out $800 and up for about
$15 worth of electronics in a little package to hang on our ear?
Why shouldn't the other suppliers exploit us as well?

Jack.

... Huh?
