Paul,

I've got a Trailblazer (an old one!) connected to the modem port
transferring data all the time (uucp mode) with no problem.  I don't think
it uses any sort of compression, and I notice a throughput of about
1200 bytes/sec (about 12KBaud).  I have had other problems with getty
complaining all the time when I dial out and also poor handshake performance,
but I'm able to live with those (sort of).
