asks:

- The question I have is: what will I be missing if I don't have V.32
- capabilities? 

If you get the T1000, the maximum speed you'll be able to 
communicate with other than Telebit modems is 2400bps.  With V.32, 
which is the international standard for modulation at 9600bps, 
you'll be able to communicate at that speed with modems from all 
other modem manufacturers.  For just a little bit more money, the 
number of modems you can communicate with is multiple by 50 times or 
more!  While most manufacturers have proprietary modulation schemes 
that offer some kind of advantage over V.32, they can only 
communicate with other modems from the same manufacturer.  For the 
maximum flexibility and connectivity, you need to have V.32.
