   There are two "discount" options available through UUNET that I
think are being confused here.  Each is described below.  Our site purchased
a Telebit through the IDNDP program listed below; however, I do not know
if either program is still in effect, but I am inclined to say that the
discounts are still available.

1)  UUNET offers around a 33% discount to UUNET subscribers only.  The
	discount is good for the entire Telbit line of products and
	has NO quantity restrictions.  However, this option is not open
	to the general public; it is for UUNET subscribers only.

2)  Telebit's IDNDP Program. (NOTE:  This discount program is not maintained
	by UUNET.  It is actually a program that Telebit offers).

        Any organization legitimately participating on the Internet by
	use of Internet domain names can qualify.  The organization must
	reside physically within the 50 United States or Canada.
	In addition all UUNET members qualify for this program as well.

	There is a quantity restriction of 2 modems.  If separate autonomous
	organizations reside under a domain entry, then each division is
	entitled to the 2 quantity purchase amount.

	The discounts are anywhere between 40% and 50% depending on the
	model of Telebit desired.  For more information, contact the
	following address:
